I'm leaving my house by the side of the river
Another summer is going by as shiny as a treasure
Dawn is ready to begin and the audience is clapping
They don't know where at night the sun goes hiding
Now the people start coming back
With brand new souls in brand new bags
Everybody can see sun on top of the hill
But they forget last night how far he ran away
I see the light slowly coming closer
Or is all the rest moving faster than was before?
I'm always blaming myself for the lack of attention
But never wanted to go for the other direction
Now that I'm about to go away
Rome will look at me until I fade
Everybody please wait for me here by the river
And then forget that I have ever gone away
I feel the day always getting closer
Or am I growing faster than ever before?
