We are walking together
to the brightness of the day
on a road that is surrounded by wild lupines
and the air is fresh full of scents
on a road that is surrounded by wild lupines
Big red roses
someone has brought into the room
I am yet a very tired man
falling asleep again
And you are coming to meet
me grabbing my hand
on a road that is surrounded by wild lupines
Wild Lupines
