We tried to sleep up in the banks of snow But soon discovered it was far too cold So we then retreated into town To find a place where there was level ground Oh Call home Oh oh Call home Oh oh Switzerland You've taken away my breath now once again You've left me with a sense of compassion For the ones who Cant' pick themselves up off the ground Oh Switzerland I never thought I'd have you as a friend I'm praying it was not at all pretend I need you now To help pick me up from off the ground Our drinks were hardly worth the price we paid But we thanked God for them anyways and With five minutes left we broke our backs To spend more money than either of us had Oh Call home Oh oh Call home Oh oh Switzerland You've taken away my breath now once again You've left me with a sense of compassion For the ones who Can't pick themselves up off the ground Oh Switzerland I never thought I'd have you as a friend I'm praying it was not at all pretend I need you now To help pick me up from off the ground Oh oh Switzerland You've taken away my breath now once again You've left me with a sense of compassion For the ones who Can't pick themselves up off the ground Oh Switzerland I never thought I'd have you as a friend I'm praying it was not at all pretend I need you now To help pick me up from off the ground Oh Switzerland You've taken away my breath now once again You've left me with a sense of compassion For the ones who Can't pick themselves up off the ground Oh Switzerland I never thought I'd have you as a friend I'm praying it was not at all pretend I need you now To help pick me up from off the ground.
