Oh the day was young
and the bright morning sun
drove away the cold night
for three little boys who just loved to fight.
The wet grass soaked our shoes
so much good time to lose
on the eastside of mainstreet
where me and the Gang used to meet.
We believed so hard it almost hurt
and it all came alive by mamas word.
At night I pulled the blankets over me
cause I was frightened by eternity.
But as the trees stopped to grow
and the red orange glow
set their branches on fire
as our time did expire
with the leaving days sun
we were all gone
When the priest rang his roaring bell
a new sunday came and gave us hell.
We all stayed well hidden and mama cried
so the old mans gun was never fired.
In my life I had not known before
there could be so much love in a war.
After each battle, that we lost or won
it grew a lot bigger as we kept going on and on
But as the trees stopped to grow
and the red orange glow
set their branches on fire
as our time did expire
with the leaving days sun
we were all gone
But as the trees stopped to grow
and the red orange glow
set their branches on fire
as our time did expire
with the leaving days sun
we were all gone

There’s one little memory of you stuck in my mind
It was our first day in London, you’ve leaned your head onto mine
And told me you’d love me for the first time
And told me you’d love me fort he first time
In Amsterdam I took you to the old canal
Whispered how we changed scares me as hell
In the air echoed silence cause I couldn’t tell
In the air echoed silence cause I didn’t tell
Let me take you back to Hide Park
Where the stars bared witness in the dark
Once so close
But now we stand apart
Done so many things wrong I know now
I hope you can forgive somehow
In Berlin I missed you and the way we used to be
Dark clouds on the horizon were all i could see
I couldn’t move, there was no way back for me
I couldn’t move, no redemption for me
Why can’t we go back to the river thames?
I never believed this is the way it all ends
Could we start again now, I have found my sense
Could we start again now, I have found my sense
Let me take you back to Hide Park
Where the stars bared witness in the dark
Once so close
But now we stand apart
Done so many things wrong I know now
I hope you can forgive somehow
Let me take you back to Hide Park
Where the stars bared witness in the dark
Once so close
But now we stand apart
Done so many things wrong I know now
I hope you can forgive somehow
We sit by the riverside, we sit by the riverside
We sit by the riverside, we sit by the riverside
We sit by the riverside, we sit by the riverside
I sit by the riverside, I sit by the riverside
I sit by the riverside, I sit by the riverside
I sit by the riverside with you on my mind

When my final day has come
And the last breath left my lung
I will be glad to join the choir
I’ll be free from every desire
When my mind soul is on it’s own
I’ll find peace, I’ll find a home
I will end an endless quest
I am weary let me rest
Chorus:
But I still would want to stay
in your arms just for one more day
And I’ll leave nothing behind
Only our memory enshrined
You were all I hoped for
Through the air I gladly soared
Now I‘ll return to the ground
Where I won’t be found
Just keep your head/gaze towards the sky
I’ll let you know when I arrive
It’s when the stars throw down their spears
And water heaven with their tears
Chorus
Bridge
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
