lyrics

Waving Leaves

I felt a drop
A drop of salty sweat
Running down my back
My brain was melting in my head
But everything was good
And so I opened up my eyes
To see the truth around me and forget about the lies

Cool wind from the sea brought some refreshing to my brain
The leaves were waving quietly and took away the pain
And then I saw
yes I saw
The color of her skin
I closed my eyes and smiled while I remembered everything

It all came back to me while I was laying in the sun
The cool breeze from the sea was slowly filling up my longs
I felt so nice, felt so good, I felt
better than before
waiting for the sandman to come knocking on my door

The cool wind is still blowing on the surface of the sea
And nothing I can do or say can change this, so you see
I do not care, do not mind, about the days to come
The only things that matter are the things that we have done

The clouds were getting bigger
and rain began to fall
And even if a storm would come, I do not care at all
The world will keep on turning
The sun will always shine
And leaves will wave forever
