|When he first cried
His mother died
I had tried to be his guide
When he was born I was too young
The father searches for the son in Istanbul
 
Oh, Istanbul
Give me back my brown-eyed son
Moonlight jumping through the trees
Sunken eyes avoiding me
From dawn to dusk the hunt is on
The father searches for the son
 
On secret streets in disbelief
Little shadow shows the lead
Prostitutes stylish and blonde
In amongst them you are one
Oh, what have I done?
 
Rolling breathless off the tongue
The vicious street gang slang
I lean into a box of pine
Identify the kid as mine

Lyrics

When he first cried

His mother died I had tried to be his guide When he was born I was too young The father searches for the son in Istanbul

Oh, Istanbul Give me back my brown-eyed son Moonlight jumping through the trees Sunken eyes avoiding me From dawn to dusk the hunt is on The father searches for the son

On secret streets in disbelief Little shadow shows the lead Prostitutes stylish and blonde In amongst them you are one Oh, what have I done?

Rolling breathless off the tongue The vicious street gang slang I lean into a box of pine Identify the kid as mine
