Zap Mama - Nostalgie Amoureuse Lyrics

That night I was walking and walking
I found myself in an open square
The square was dirty full of garbage
Paper plastic tin cans
There where people sleeping on the benches
With blankets made of cardboard

I wasn’t comfortable
And I judged from what I saw
Stinking filth contempt

One of them smiles at me and says
“Hey, don’t go losing your today
Hiding your soul
In your solitude
I’ve skipped from society
And a token that keeps us true
Keeps us true

“Your face is my life,” he says
“And the day shines better for the view
The birds talk amongst themselves
And their words tell tales of you
Tales of you

“We are the winners
If we unclose our eyes
The feeling’s not what it seems
The healing waits in our skies
Wait in our sky
Wait in our sky

“Hey there
Before you walk away
Show me the smile that says
‘I’m not alone’
You see what you want in me
Because this crazy life
This crazy life
This crazy life is my home
We are the winners
If we unclose our eyes
The feeling’s not what it seems
The healing waits in our sky
Wait in our sky

“Hey there
Before you walk away
Show me the smile that says
‘I’m not alone’
Oh you see
What you want in me
Because this crazy life
This crazy life
This crazy life is my home
This crazy life is my home
We are the winners
If we unclose our eyes
The feeling’s not what it seems
The healing waits in our sky
Waits in our sky
