These strangers Come calling Soon enough they're gone The twilight Is falling Lamps will soon go on And where does summer go? I will never know Summer used to last endlessly Children all in white Running down the sand To me... To me... These strangers Sent packing What do they expect? So grasping So lacking Why not be direct? The beating of my heart After they depart Lying wide awake Through the night Will you ever come Running home to me? You might... You might... I've believed so long I have dared to hope That the door might open And that you might enter Playing hide and seek Kisses on my cheek The lamps begin to glow In my heart, I know You're a lie that I've waited for Tell them all to go Tell them all - no more! Tell them I close the door
