Standing Still Lyrics

Twarres

Walking around at the place, there where you lost sight of your life
Trees were green, sky was blue and the train was yellow and hard
Did the birds stop singing for a while, did they see you at all
Did the worlds heart miss a beat
Standing still for a while, try to follow the train of your thoughts
Questions rise in my mind, I'll just let them take their course
If the birds stopped singing for a while, if they had a story to tell
Then my heart would miss a beat
When you closed your eyes, did you know what was wrong
If you could open your eyes again, would you be more strong
I'll move on, in a while but for now I'm standing here
Not a word through the year, but you meant so much to me
I still have so many things to ask to you, but you only said good luck girl, and goodbye
When you closed your eyes, did you know what was wrong
If you could open your eyes again, would you be more strong
