Solos

As children they learned to play
The street was the school for both
Their cobblestone neighborhood was their freedom
And the park the keeper of their secrets

I am sixteen
And I am fourteen today
I want to go far away
You too

The light in the lamppost
Told them it's late already
And the park, as always, closed

And they will go alone
And even the stars will blow kisses
And they will say 'see you tomorrow'
Then they will dream
Like every night

That they will go far away
To a deserted island
Where the sun shines
Far from their home and that old teacher
Who tortured them and they will go

Wake up, it's eight on the clock
You're going to be late like yesterday
And drink your coffee before it gets cold
And wash your hands and brush your teeth

And now go
It's getting late
Don't miss the bus
And together again, another day begins
And alone in the park they will dream

And they will go (repeats)
