lyrics

I’ll leave my home by the fall,
quiet as a mouse – no one will hear me go
But a crowd of faces gathered by the river
to see my hands fighting with the first waves


oh man I’ve changed with time
my fear
oh man I’ve changed with time
my silenced fears found their way
and no one here believes that I’m coming back home

I cried you my dream
I followed the light; the scent of your garden
I closed my eyes too

I left my hands dancing in the memories
Of the hills that stand
Choosing words like picking flowers in here
In the birth of my rage this way I’m not coming back dear

oh man I’ve changed with time
my fear
oh man I’ve changed with time
my silenced fears found their way
and no one here believes that I’m coming back home today

I’ll travel south
I’ll be my woman, I’ll my man
And love has no place in here

But the crowd still waits
But even the fish don’t believe in my return from winter

oh man I’ve changed with time
my fear
oh man I’ve changed with time
my silenced fears found their way
and no one here believes that I’m coming back home
