Songtext von 1996

1996 in a couple of years i'll be scuffing the sidewalk humming something that captured my ear and i'll catch a glimpse of your face coming up out of nowhere and remember the way it lit me up and you'll be a thousand miles off but i'm sure you'd agree that was a pretty good year in a few days from now i'll be packing up lightly getting rid of the weight that slows me down heading straight for the sun casting shadows behind me blocking out all i used to know i'll thank you for letting me go i was never alone i've been telling myself that the sky will get brighter sometimes that's something i need to hear as i wander along and the colors start fading sometimes i wait for the sparks to reappear they don't come around much these days but one thing's still clear that was a pretty good year
