Those words are all remainders, echoes growing in the heart of twilight

They lay back laughing at naivety star

Awaken all those whispers

The dusty shadow of a passing favour

I wouldn't say that you were ruthless or right

I couldn't see from so far

Was I chasing after rainbows?

One thing for sure you never answered when I
Am
called
F D
And I wiped away the water from my face

to look through the eyes of a stranger

For rumours in the wake of such a lonely crowd

trading in my shelter for danger

I'm changing my name just as the sun goes down

in the eyes of a stranger

When all these faces look the same to me

In ev'ry city such a desolate dream

Some days are strange to numbers

Some say the seventh sounds a little bit stranger

A year of Sundays seems to have drifted right by

I could have sworn in one evening

And I'm not seized in desperation

No steel reproaches on the table from be-
Am
fore
F D
But I still can feel those splinters of ice

I look through the eyes of a stranger
Repete Refrão
D Am
...walking away like a stranger
