Walk On The Wild Side
(Hinkel / Freudenthaler)
And when the land begins to call
The sprites they dance
The leaves they fall
The change's begun
and what remains
Not even thoughts ?not even names
We can remember can forget

and smiling coolly drove away

This place has everything. C'mon...
I show you.
