They are speaking of what's stylish,
They are living day by day
And I'm looking at them as if they are fools,
Life goes on in its way.

Today, today the day has finished
And we all came to bury it,
But no one knows
That the shining star has died.

And I stand on the other shore,
Where I see all things
I stand on the other shore.

It is dark in city towers,
I got nothing at all
And you did not get much, believe.

However I don't fear pain,
What is she? To her I pray
She is a friend of mine.

And I stand on the other shore,
Where I see all things
I stand on the other shore.

I am speaking of what's stylish,
I am living day by day
And I'm looking at me as if I'm a fool,
Life goes on in its way.

It is good the day is finished
But not all came to bury it
And no one knows
That the shining star still lives.

And I stand on the other shore,
Where I see all things
I stand on the other shore.

Come, stand with me on the shore
Where I see all things
Come, stand with me on the shore.
