lyrics

Always hoping for happy endings
Then questions start sneaking up
The poet knows how it goes
In the evening the sun is leaving
Nothing new about this story
With the dawn she'll return in her old glory

Sometimes
Sometimes dreams
Sometimes dreams are such lonely spots

Always dreaming of perfection
But exposure slowly scrapes off your skin
Bleached teeth and sun-tanned cheeks
Late at night the smile is fading
Nothing new about this story
In the dawn everything will be restored

Sometimes
Sometimes dreams
Sometimes dreams are such lonely spots

And the streets all screamed
Washing down all the worries
Lining up, lining up,
Hurry up, hurry up now
