lyrics

Sitting down in the middle of the square,
The Sun is shining in another windy day.
A day for smiles and maybe mourn for all the blessings that are gone.

There's an ancient road just beneath my feet,
an underground of skulls, an empty page for me to leave.
And in the horizon I still see the dying Sun,
I wonder dear, will I return?

I keep on walking on the trails we used to walk, stretched alleys are the places I recall.
And I do smile and maybe mourn for all the blessings that are gone.

The cold is biting as the winter's coming near, to leave this place might be the thing that I most fear, and in my future a phantom ship without a crew. I wonder dear... what should I do?

Sitting here and I have waited quite too long,
And all the reasons for staying I recall.
My only anchor, she has left long time ago. I wonder dear if I must go?
I do believe the time has come...

Sitting here and I have waited quite too long,
A day for smiles and maybe mourn for all the blessings that are gone.
My only anchor she has left long time ago.
And I do smile and maybe mourn for all the blessings that are gone.
