A nine days' wonder looking back

As the sun goes down

As time goes by a sketch of life

On the wall worn out



One day she said in the usual tone

That I don't shine anymore

So I laughed and said "Can you bring it back?"

She stands alone watching the leaves fall



So many places, so many ways

But there's no way home, nowhere I belong



So many faces fade away

And then life goes on



So many places, so many ways

But there's no way home, nowhere I belong



Off the rails dream away

The amber lights flicker out



An old soldier lives in the dark

Says the light only causes pain



Now I don't listen to him this time

I packes my bag and I walk to the bus stop

Stars start falling down like a yellow rain, like fire-works

I stand alone watching the stars fall



So many places, so many ways

But there's no way home, nowhere I belong



So many faces fade away

And then life goes on



So many places, so many ways

But there's no way home, nowhere I belong



So many faces fade away

And then life goes on

Still living in a world we know

Still living in a world we know

Still living in a world we know

Still living in a world we know

Hold on there

And then life goes on



Still living in a world we know

Still living in a world we know

Still living in a world we know

Still living in a world we know

Hold on there

And then life goes on
