The South

Your open mind was full of sounds

and full of rhythms to reach sometime

can you hear them? can you feel them?

can you help me to match them up?


the words were shut inside a bottle

that got knocked over your cloth

can you clean them? can you clear them?

did they stain forever?


and there we were crying out loud

our private winter case began to fade

however the last train left me alone behind

and then you started to talk

and i wrote all you said before it was too late

and i forgot your message


you can come with me to meet the south

you can leave this town now that you're young

we can make this trip tomorrow soon

but please do not forget to take your love with you


you came and said it wasn't you

and used that cigarette up fast

-i won't make this bet today

cause there's no ace to win this game


i teared my papers full of notes

and took my bag to fly away

-this will hurt you, but i need it

throw it all and start again.


and there i was crying out loud

our private winter case began to fade

however the last train left me alone behind

and then you started to talk

and i wrote all you said before it was too late

and i forgot your message


you can come with me to meet the south

you can leave this town now that you're young

we can make this trip tomorrow soon

but please do not forget to take your love with you
