driven by strange dreams i came down to the shore
to find you caught in seaweeds
when i wanted to wash all the clothes that i wore

you told me the whales would be the trains of the sea
and the sea itself it would be the tears you cry for me

you could not stand the land – that's no reason to mourn
cause i dream every night
that you're happy and save now in harbors beyond every storm

your eyes were filled with foam from the trains of the sea
as you promised with weak voice you would not come back for me

driven by sad dreams i go down to the shore
in the vain hope to find you
in the same place i've found you once before

and i wish i could drown with you in the tears you cried for me
as i'm standing here longing like you for the trains of the sea

but the tears that you cried for me they are not what i need
as i'm missing you so tonight that my nose starts to bleed
