A Nine Days' Wonder — Akeboshi

A nine days' wonder looking back As the sun goes down As time goes by a sketch of life On the wall worn out

One day she said in the usual tone That I don't shine anymore So I laughed and said "Can you bring it back?" She stands alone watching the leaves fall

So many places, so many ways But there's no way home, nowhere I belong

So many faces fade away And then life goes on

So many places, so many ways But there's no way home, nowhere I belong

Off the rails dream away The amber lights flicker out

An old soldier lives in the dark Says the light only causes pain

Now I don't listen to him this time I pack my bag and I walk to the bus stop Stars start falling down like a yellow rain, like fire-works I stand alone watching the stars fall

So many places, so many ways But there's no way home, nowhere I belong

So many faces fade away And then life goes on

So many places, so many ways But there's no way home, nowhere I belong

So many faces fade away And then life goes on

Still living in a world we know Still living in a world we know Still living in a world we know Still living in a world we know Hold on there And then life goes on

Still living in a world we know Still living in a world we know Still living in a world we know Still living in a world we know Hold on there And then life goes on
