Don't send me back, don't send me home
It's too full of the ghosts I know
I am a wayward son, I am a wrecking ball
I'm at the gates, I wait in hope
Frozen by the eastern cold
I was in berlin, I was on my own
Hengelo, I am so glad
For everything I carry on my back
Hengelo, I was so scared
Up to my neck in debt

Oh, hengelo
Oh, hengelo
When waves pull back the seabed shows
When cash dries up you're just skin and bones
I was in berlin, I was on my own
Hengelo, I am so glad
For everything I carry on my back
Hengelo, I was so scared
Up to my neck in debt
Oh, hengelo

Hengelo, I am so glad
For everything I carry on my back
Hengelo, I was so scared
Up to my neck in debt
Oh, hengelo, I am so glad
For everything I carry on my back
Oh, hengelo, I was so scared
Up to my neck in debt
