lyrics

From Tallinn to Spain
From summer heat to pouring rain
I sailed only to find you...

I
was sixteen and I was
thrown out from the door
I Didn't wanna mop
my step dads floor

I
was loafing at the port
when it started to rain
I sneaked into a ship
it was start of the trip

Shanghai ´69
(it was the year, it was the place, when I saw your face...)

Then, days became weeks
and weeks became months
South China Sea
what a place to be

And I saw you
at the port of Huangpo
didn't believe you could care
just some white kid coming there
your intentions were sheer:

Sweet orange and mango
Opium and tango

*Shanghai ´69
It's where I met you, it's where I let you... It's where I let you go

Didn't ask your name, Oh, I didn't want to sound so lame
I thought that it was just a game, and you would've felt the same like I did

So I sailed away from you, trough the sound of Huangpo, but still
you're a tattoo in my arm, I still taste your tiger balm!

*Shanghai ´69
It's where I met you, It's where I let you... It's where I let you go

It's where I met you
And then I let you go
