lyrics

Is it the taste of the coffee or the smoke
It all dances on my tongue
And I can't tell

Is it the taste of a childhood gone too fast
Or a moment that will last
I can't tell

And though we roam, burning hay, burning wild grass
Never-ending summer's class
We will stay

You said goodbye for the first time
You said goodbye for the first time

A Balkan night
We're driving through the sleepy towns
I don't know what's real and time keeps slowing down

An endless road
We always meet in worlds unknown
Let the time pass, let it flow - I won't care, no

And all those days when you waited for
the dusk and dawn, the dusk and dawn
The hours spent hypnotised by the silver of the screen
It doesn't mean anything
So put on your coat, pack your bag and leave
Let's leave

And you said goodbye for the first time
The night smells of jasmine and the sky
is clear as ice

You said goodbye for the first time
You said you're fine, you just need to be
on your own for a while

Can I join you in this silence for the first time?
I'll be here tonight, so let us just stare at the sky

When you travel far, so far away from home
From everything you know
You meet yourself
