Lyrics:
That night on my windowsill I saw a picture
Of a face I once knew
As I leaned towards to grab it
It faded into a corner of my mind
I am eager for the times we will spend outside
Staring at the sea
Sure we live pressed for time
But there are moments from the past
That we will want to tell our children
Woke up to dead flowers in my garden
Was it the winter winds, or is it my sight keeps changing?
Must I keep staring at the sun, searching for the faith
That I lost in the meantime?
Won’t you ever think of the people?
Starving, praying for some light
As I look into the picture I remember
The time that I knew myself
Lately I’ve been dreaming of a distant past
Where we were dazzled by a golden meadow
We were free to dive into steady waters
And smell the wild spearmint
I want to live
I want to live
I want to live...
