lyrics

Think of the time could have spent
seeking stars 'til the night's end.

I can feel it nigh,
woke up 'cause of the light,
yet you do sleep tight.
How do you sleep at nights?

A white window pane,
Is that steps or rain?
I regret in vain:
those knives have my name.

Think of the time we could have spent together
(seeking stars 'til the night's end)
But they are they and they don't like
If I sleep crows will peck my eye.

I can't sleep at night...

Think of the time we could have spent
seeking stars 'til the night's end,
that damn night's end.

Think of that time
I would have died for you,
when it made sense to sleep tight.
