Five hundred and sixty nine days ago
I saw a man
I saw a man leaning on the wall
Tears in his eyes
Feet on the floor

Five hundred and sixty nine days ago
I started walking
I started walking towards a man
A man leaning
Tears in his eyes

Five hundred and sixy eight days have passed
Since I started walking
Since I started walking towards a man
A man leaning
Tears in his eyes
Leaning on the wall
Feet on the floor
Still leaning
Still crying

Five hundred sixty eight days later
I'm still trying
Trying to reach this man
This man leaning
Tears in his eyes
