Here we are stuck by this river
You and I underneath a sky
That's ever falling down, down, down
Ever falling down
Through the day as if on an ocean
Waiting here always failing to remember
Why we came, came, came
I wonder why we came
You talk to me as if from a distance
And I reply with impressions chosen
From another time, time, time
From another time
You and I underneath a sky
That's ever falling down, down, down
Ever falling down
Through the day as if on an ocean
Waiting here always failing to remember
Why we came, came, came
I wonder why we came
You talk to me as if from a distance
And I reply with impressions chosen
From another time, time, time
From another time

I knew I knew this song, it's been a while though. Great to hear it on RP. It definitely belongs here! :)
Several years ago, we got to see the 80-year-old Roedelius perform this, with his wife joining him on vocals. It was impossibly beautiful.
Great album and great song
First!
