Moabit
Moabit is an inner city locality of Berlin. Since Berlin's 2001 administrative reform it belongs to the newly regrouped governmental borough of Mitte. Previously, from 1920 to 2001, it belonged to the borough of Tiergarten. Moabit's borders are defined by three watercourses: the Spree, the Westhafen Canal and the Berlin-Spandau Navigation Canal. Colloquially, the name Moabit also refers to the Central Criminal Court (Strafgericht) and detention centre, which deals with all criminal cases in Berlin.
Name
The origin of the name Moabit is disputed. According to one account, it can be traced back to the Huguenots, in the time of King Frederick William I of Prussia. These French refugees are said to have named their new residence in reference to the Biblical description of the Israelites in the country of Moab, where they stayed before being allowed to enter Canaan. Other possible origins include the German (Berlin dialect) "Moorjebiet" (swamp area).
History
In the 13th century the waste area along the road to Spandau known as Grosse Stadtheide ("Great city Heath") was a hunting ground of the electors of Brandenburg. 1716 saw the formation of the colony of Old Moabit by the Huguenots, who were meant to cultivate white mulberry trees for silkworms, but failed because of the low soil quality.

this time in the evening
i can see the shadows stretching to the edge of the world
i fell off it once, into your arms
and i've never felt so out of this world
(you take me so far) so far away from here
even though my feet don't move my heart is with you there
and it's not of this world (anymore)
and it's not gonna stand still (anymore)
i will follow you
i will follow you
i will follow you
to the edge of the world
i'm ready to leave
without saying a word
i will follow you
to the edge of the world
so here i go again here i go again
i've come to the end of my strength when i thought my strength would never end
i've come to grips with my _____________
i can see you ________ my weakness
i know you've got me do this that's exactly why
i will follow you
i will follow you
i will follow you
to the edge of the world
i'm ready to leave
without saying a word
i will follow you
and there's no greater fight than the daily fight to conquer myself
and there's no wonder why i can't get by by myself
and there's no question now i've got to stay by your side
if i'm ever gonna stay alive i've got to (i've got to)
i will follow you i will follow you
i will follow you i will follow you
i will follow you i will follow you
i will follow you i will follow you
(intrumental)

to the edge of the world
i'm dying to live
