lyrics

We were lighting cigarettes,
placing bets on all the fights
that were going on

We were walking in the streets
nameless dogs in the dusk
where the drunks and taxis meet

as I was tracing on the map
the path where I felt
I was lost and alone
only to master myself
all the silver and gold
I'd give to be
back on the road
that leads you back to me

we were basking in the sun
in a daydream found
on a sleepless night in Beijing
and the dawn as it approached
broke the haze and the smoke
that came from the night before

and by dawn's first light,
I leave this city behind
and the voices of the crowd
will slowly leave my mind
and I live that daydream
with you in the sun
has it finally ended
or has it just begun?
