A grey blanket is covering the day The blaze of color has gone away for a long time I can smell the white It has to obey the rhythm of the year It's my decline A cold wind is sending them out The needles in my face let my head go down When could this end I start to think about I am in a cage instead of this town Whatever will happen and the days will bring I'm gonna go back to Vienna in spring I walk along all those empty streets I remember all the sunny days I was walking Through the alleys right to the seats under the trees By the wheel for a drink and for talking too Whatever will happen and the days will bring I'm gonna go back to Vienna in spring I want to get back this special kind Of a feeling to be the real king In the realm of casualness There is something unique In Vienna in spring Whatever will happen and the days will bring I'm gonna go back to Vienna in spring Whenever I think of you I would like to sing I'll be back in Vienna in spring
