lyrics

Hearing your voice again
After so many years
It feels like you’re home again
Ready for a new stage

Feeling your breath again
Into this room
As if you’d never left
Until you take a next step

Ooh, why don’t you sleep ?
Something in the way you run
Tells me you’re right
When you slow down
Ooh, why don’t you come out ?
Something in the way you hide
Tells me you’re wrong
When you’re alone

So this is the time
Tomorrow you’ll leave again
For another town

Seeing you pack your bag
Is freezing the past
Shadows will never laugh
In the dimness of this house
