Seagulls used to cry at the dumps
We used to laugh with you (x2)
Every night bombs used to fall upon the city,
We used to make love endlessly (x2)
Don't be so cruel now,
Don't go away like the yesterday, like the yesterday
Let me hug your feet,
Don't walk me over like (I am the) sand, like (I am the) sand (x2)
Autumn used to dribble upon our roofs,
We used to turn yellow with you (x2)
For these dirty faces to lighten up
We used to fight endlesssly (x2)
Don't be so cruel now,
Don't go away like the yesterday, like the yesterday
Let me hug your feet,
Don't walk me over like (I am the) sand, like (I am the) sand (x2)
