I don't know how, don't know who abandoned me
I don't know when, don't know why it came to be.
Someone cries out in the alleyway,
where I happen to be, where I happen to be.
Wolves cry in the darkness
in a desert in the vast city,
I don't recognize anyone that passes by,
I'm leaving, I'm leaving.
They'll come back for me, I know they'll come back,
a hundred thousand stars will shine
and a girl in the doorway
will look at me and ask:
How long ago? how did it happen?
the bottle's still in the room,
that thorn in my heart
hurts more, more each day.
They'll come back for me, I know they'll come back,
a hundred thousand stars will shine
and a girl in the doorway
will look at me and ask:
They'll come back for me, I know they'll come back,
sweet dreams will come back
and in a drop on the glass
comes to announce that winter will come.
I don't know how, don't know who abandoned me
I don't know when, don't know why it came to be.
Someone cries out in the alleyway,
where I happen to be, where I happen to be.
Wolves cry in the darkness
in a desert in the vast city,
I don't recognize anyone that passes by,
I'm leaving, I'm leaving.
They'll come back for me, I know they'll come back,
a hundred thousand stars will shine
and a girl in the doorway
will look at me and will ask me.
They'll come back for me, I know they'll come back,
sweet dreams will come back
and in a drop on the glass
comes to announce that winter will come.
