lyrics

hi
what’s your name
where do you live
have I seen you before?

yes, nice apartments
kitchens built-in
wide view from the window
but the walls are so thin

sometimes I hear shouting
sometimes I hear fighting
and I wonder
should I interfere

I take a glass
and listen through the wall
I hear the silly arguments
the drunken brawl

are you OK?
is that a black eye
some bruises are showing
you look you want to cry

you look so unhappy
with no confidence
full of shame
who’s to blame

my door is always open
if you need to get away
if you want to talk
there is so much to say

I heard you crying
didn’t dare to do something
is that good or bad
would you like to get a drink
