Antoine Vlieghe - Aftermath Lyrics

I'll be there tomorrow
Looking for what I used to own
I'll walk the path I know
Amongst the rubbles of my town
I'll get before the dawn
Where the river starts its flow
Where mankind had drawn
A chance to settle and to grow
I still remember the light
Its warm touch on my skin
Along soft summer nights
Lulled by the sounds of the earth
Ripples on the water
Of leaves falling down the trees
I engrave in my mind
Their fleeting motion fading out
Shadows of our world
Show as the sun rises up
They'll decay when it sets
To blend at once into the night
I feared darkness at first
Though not everything can be bright
'Mixed memories about
What I used to treasure and to trust
I still remember the light
Its warm touch on my skin
Along soft summer nights
Lulled by the sounds of the earth
Ripples on the water
Of leaves falling down the trees
I engrave in my mind
Their fleeting motion fading out
