Fernweh

Herm fuhr als Steward auf der "Queen Elizabeth"
er zeigte mir mal 'n Foto, da stand er lässig an der Reling mit dem Silbertablett
wenn Herm einmal im Jahr nach Hause kam
in unsere kleine Heimatstadt
dann erzählte er mir, daß die weite Welt sieben wilde Meere hat
Ja, Herm war der Typ, der mir die Ansichtskarten schrieb
mal aus Rio, mal aus irgend 'ner Hawaii-Bar
und ich muß schon sagen, daß es mir die Tränen in die Augen trieb
wenn ich bedachte, daß ich nicht dabei war
Er als Seemann, er war gut dran
und außerdem war er total tätowiert
und ich war vierzehn, saß noch fest in unserem Nest
und war sehr deprimiert
