Liebesreim: means lover's rhyme in German
This is for Sherri Lynn
Hey Alabama, can you hear me? You in Illinois and me in Wisconsin We finally met in Germany Hey Alabama, it’s twenty twenty-five I can’t find you on Facebook I wonder if you’re still alive Hey Alabama, it’s nineteen eighty-six I have just arrived in country I’ll be living in the barracks Hey Alabama, Hey Country You calling to me in Georgia Just a state away from me Hey Alabama, hey October Your 4th of July in my blue eyes You a Country girl, me a Rock-n-Roller Hey Alabama, did you know I can still remember the smell of your perfume on my clothes (Hey Alabama, I will never forget our early morning Together looking down upon a German village Lights shining through while it was snowing And we (not knowing at the time) Were always just one state away from each other Until we met in our Liebesreim) Hey Alabama I hate to bring this up When things were going good for us Why'd you suddenly break up? Hey Alabama, did you feel the need To push me away (you never said goodbye) And let me bleed? Hey Alabama, I know, I know, so I will refrain from making a scene I just wanted you to know I’d rather remember you The way I remember you The way you remember me too
