Lilac Time (The)

Finistère
Come and watch the Sun set with meFrom FinistèreA sentimental moment with meThat we can shareForget the faces of forgotten childrenOh, how they criedThey cannot forgive forgetful FathersOh, how they liedAnd now they try to run awayYou listen to your WalkmenOn the back seat of the busYou feel yourself evaporateIn unselfconciousnessThe wounded animal sat by the roadsideOh, "how" he criedDid the peaceful pastures become minefields"Oh, "woe" he criedFor now he cannot run awayOh, run awayFrom the half digested bitterness you feelOh, "how can you stay?Says the unexpected innocence you keepSongtexteAnd how long does that innocence keepYou from drying up, drying outAnd fading away?The days when I was bullet proofAnd nightly full of holesIs deep and strong as cellophaneIn a galaxy of soulsThe father to so many needs a motherOh, how she criedDoes the Father's Mother need a loverOh, "yes, please!" she criedI know I'll never run awayFinistèreI can't run no moreFinistèreI can't run no more Aus Songtexte Mania
