I Still Believe

I Still Believe


The burning sun is shining bright,
The beams are playing on the ground,
The perfect sky, a game of light,
But there is something more I've found...


I saw a boy among the trees,
I saw him crying all alone
In misty flight of falling leaves,
At place where wild river flows


I am a man - he said to me -
I have already crossed the line,
And now I'm burying all my dreams
I have been holding all this time.


A handful of bright sparkling stones
He had been carrying all those years
With love and care, all alone -
Was wet because of crystal tears.


He made a hole in the sand,
And put the dreams that he had found.
I took one piece of them, before
All they were covered by the ground.


I looked through it - I saw the past,
A little child who wants to grow,
I saw a flight of falling leaves, and sun,
And wild river's flow...

I still believe in all my dreams,
I'll never give them up, I swear.
Somehow, someday I'll find my way.
My home exists, it's out there...
