    You found me
    16 June 2009 Leipzig
    C.K.

    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    as drunk as work can be.
    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    from way across the sea.
    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    with leaves of dappled hue.
    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    though I had searched for you.
    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    under Venus skies.
    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    on the first of many tries.
    You found me in my evening
    and I learned to see anew.
    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    and I fell in love with you.
    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    as drunk as work can be.
    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    over there across the sea.

    (as drunk as work can be. - not English but I meant drunk with work)
    The Whiskey Bar is held in the workshop yard adjoining BimboTown and as people arrived and started to eat I was still engrossed in repairing a machine. When I sat down to eat CK came and sat opposite me!

    I found me
    16 June 2009 Leipzig
    C.K.

    I found me in the Whisky Bar
    I found what I can do
    I found me in the Whisky Bar
    in a dream I never knew.
    I found me in the Whisky Bar
    amidst garlic and french fries
    You found me in the Whisky Bar
    ... that was a surprise.
    I found me in the Whisky Bar
    under Moon and Starry skies
    I found me in the Whisky Bar
    as I looked into your eyes.
    I found me in the Whisky Bar
    I found what I can do
    I found me in the Whisky Bar
    in a dream that's always you.

    We found us
    2009 Leipzig
    C.K.

    We found us in the Whisky Bar
    under Moon and Venus too
    We found us in the Whisky Bar
    in love we never knew.
    We found us in the Whisky Bar
    I said goodbye and flew
    We found us in the Whisky Bar
    when I returned to you.
    We can find us in that Whisky Bar
    as long as we can say
    We'll find us in that Whisky Bar
    for ever and a day.
