I think you still could recognize me Though my hair has grown You don't need to call Zacharias For his ancient microscope ♪ I'll be where the Elbe river Drags along the Dresden sands In the wake of your chain reactions ♪ Not even Max could understand ♪ I tried to love you long ago But failed experiments are all I know
And In the shadows of much wiser men I'll start again, again I'll start again ♪ I know my failures are just beginnings But still old Mendel mapped the traits ♪ All he said was batten down the hatches Kill the lights and lock the gates I tried to love you long ago But failed experiments are all I know And In the shadows of much wiser men I'll start again, again I'll start again So come on Crick come on Watson Take yourselves another hit Sing that song about the double helix And how it came un-split I tried to love you long ago But failed experiments are all I know And In the shadows of much wiser men I'll start again, again I'll start again
