A Nine Days' Wonder (Live)

Akeboshi

A nine day 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 packed 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
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
hold on there and
then life goes on
