A Passing

Who gets to touch the president now
who cares that he walks among us
If he smiles at us are we reassured
is he proud to be our leader

He puts us together
he takes us apart
Do we trust what he says
our fate in his hands
a hope and a promise
in this man
that no one else shares

Who gets to touch the president now
who wants to

He said, "Ich ben ein Berlin" ...
we did
the world did
forever etched in our lives
and forever etched
in our hearts
