Letra

Álbum: Hemispheres ( 1978)

A boy alone, so far from home, 
Endless rooftops from my window. 
I felt the gloom of empty rooms 
On rainy afternoons. 
Sometimes, in confusion, 
I felt so lost and disillusioned, 
Innocence gave me confidence 
To go up against reality. 
All the same, we take our chances, 
Laughed at by Time, 
Tricked by Cirtances. 
Plus ca change, 
Plus c'est la meme chose, 
The more that things change, 
The more they stay the same. 
Now I've gained some understanding 
Of the only world that we see. 
Things that I once dreamed of 
Have become reality. 
These walls that still surround me 
Still contain the same old me, 
Just one more who's searching for a world that ought to be.
