These strangers, come calling
Soon enough they're gone
The twilight is falling, lamps will soon go on

And where did summer go I will never
Know summer used to last endlessly
Children all in white, running down the sand
To me
To me

These strangers, sent packing
What do they expect
So grasping
So lacking
Why not be direct

The beating of my heart
After they depart
Lying wide awake
Through the night
Will you ever come
Rinning home to me
You might
You might

I've believed so long
I have dared to hope
That the door might open
And that you might
Enter

Playing hide and seek
Kisses on my cheek
The lamps begin to glow
In my heart I know
You're a lie that I've waited for
Tell them all to go
Tell them all no more
Tell them I close the door
