LETTER FROM EGYPT (музыка: M.Harket, текст: O.S.Olsen)
It's a pity to disturb
what happens by itself
By greed and hunger
we won't reach it any longer
You're a fool to use force
when you walk through open doors
And see this night, perhaps it falls
not for you and I at all
All these stars they would shine
even if we both were blind
But something new is gonna come
We can live some day
like if we're gone
We won't need much space
We won't need much space then
So let me walk you down the street
kicking leaves up with our feet
That's not a sound for us to hear
but for the blind man over there
It's allright baby, it's ok
Everyone is on their way
Have a look - around you
Everybody knows it's getting late
Baby it's ok
Everyone is far from home these days
My love what can I say
Tomorrow's always been
a very special day
And it's alright baby
It's ok
Have a look around you
As I was walking down the street last night
The streets were no longer mine
I was heading for the park
A dog strayed in front of me
It was the night of the sleepless people
- Their clouds drifting above the treetops
But it was the youth in the park that really owned the night
- Exuberant amidst the flickering shadows
None of this, however, belonged to me,
Yet still I was included
A door here and there slammed to
And the stars started to appear
It was the end of august
- In this troubled, angelic town
Which you don't leave
Before you receive its blessings
