You climbed into the bus that was leaving
You’re no more than a point shining in the cold
I wasn’t afraid of anything
I thought I could handle it all
But this light leaving into the night forever
I imagine you, your nose pressed against the glass
You watch the magnificent first flakes of snow falling
Around you phantoms are perhaps going to read
And other phantoms to try and sleep
Buried in my jacket
Your favourite one, your keys
It’s still early, I need a coffee
At the end of the street blinks a blue light
I’m going to go there and warm up a bit
Oooo la la la la
I thought I could handle it all
But this light leaving into the night forever
I imagine you listening to the noise of the motor
And the old radio under the driver’s feet
But the bus which slowly crushes the snow
And the road straight ahead stretching away
The waitress is beautiful, she smiles non-stop
There’s someone somewhere who knows how to love her
Outside the sounds of shovels, it’s nearly daylight
I’d like to stay here in this bar forever
Buried in my jacket
Your favourite one, your keys
With the blue blinking outside
The snow seems to move
I wasn’t afraid of anything
I thought I could handle it all
But this light leaving into the night forever
Oooh la la la la
I thought I could handle it all
But this light leaving into the night forever
Oooh la la la la
Outside the sounds of shovels, it’s nearly daylight
I’d like to stay here in this bar forever
