I’ve read every page in the book of loneliness
There I found answers to questions I’ve never asked
And now I got this song stuck in my head
It reminds me that I too was once a kid
Playing around in the city park that disappeared
When they let their bombs fall all around
And who is going to write the letter
Telling the ones who are behind
That waiting by the shoreline
Won’t bring anyone back
Let’s close thе door and let them wage thеir war
How could I ever tell you, what keeps me alive
I just want to decorate this place with simple flowers
And now I’m walking through the same old landscape
It’s filled with empty chairs and needles in the wind
For a moment I thought I recognized the man on the horizon
He was standing there with a child
With blue balloons all around them
I called out
to him
But he didn’t understand
He kept on facing the low hanging sun
I’m very sorry darling that it wasn’t true
That on the other side of the ocean
We would be more than just numbers
And who would have thought that after travelling for so long
That I would end up at this round table
Dining with my disfigured apostles
And just because I’ve just woken up doesn’t mean that I’ve been dreaming
Cause I’m still alone and noon is almost over
