I'm leaving in the morning
Off to Germany I go
I'll miss Virginia weather
Up to my butt in snow
While pushing through the drifting white
I'll be a winter flower
When I fight the need to pollinate
I won't need a cold shower
The pieces that fall off you
Are the ones you really need
The ones that stay attached
Don't have the guts to be freed
If I come home with a higher voice
Let's say I gave them a piece of my mind
Though Deutschland still can make me cry
It's not my heart I leave behind
