For Decades On

Turn around to see that suitcase
Sitting by his side
Where's he going from that lonely
Platform in July

I wish that I knew his name
And his life
From then on
I'll just say
He'll be okay
For decades on

The problems that he saw around
In 1981
Was nothing as compared to what
The world is faced with now

I wish that I knew his plans
And his life
From then on
Growing grey
He'll be okay
For decades on

The problems that he saw around in 1981
Was nothing as compared to what
The world is faced with

Devenir gris

Now

For decades on
