Walking faster down the street with eyes and no shoes on her feet

This is farewell, this is goodnight

The last time she will see the daylight

My little child, please come home

Away from the light of day

Standing by the riverside

Patientelly waiting for the tide to come along

The water going through her feet and on her body wind so cold and sweet
