Yesterday I came back,

To the place where I lost myself.

To the place where I found myself.

I danced with the stars,

And cried with the ocean.

But I didn't find you there.

Where did you go?

The winds were blowing on the trees,

And the night was getting deeper.

I searched everywhere,

All I found were distant screams.

Silhouettes of the place I call home.

Take me back.

Take back the swelling in my feet,

Of hours of walking,

My shoes marking the city.

I wanna feel the wind again,

Hear your voice again.

Nonetheless it's all gone.

Replaced by an exact copy,

But still so different.

I closed my eyes to feel your voice.

Only a whisper can be heard.

But it was enough as the night deepend.
