The year I was born
The Vietnam war came to an end
Time for liberation
That was what some thought it would be
Dont remember how
How I ended up in this town
Still I feel the same as if
It's the first day I met you
You watched the train come and go
From whats left of old town
The flower still grows in me
I grew up, a bit clued up
Got jaded and then faded
Believing in our happy ending
Like a sunset off the coastline
Never cheated
We never lied, too
We hated before they hated us
She was so strong
And she was so sad
I guess I was the same way
Just don't close your eyes
Just don't close your eyes
This could be my direction
You tell me you are doing fine
Were just waiting for the answers
Wind blowing one direction
You tell me you are doing fine
Were just waiting for the answers
I'm writing down my thoughts
Like chasing down something to hold
Something to lean on
When leaving off the sail
You're giving me something to bet on
Something to go on
And after all I have survived
Your cheek is what this morn reminds
It's darkness you cast away
That leaves the seed right where you stand
As you look into my sentiment
Your flower grows
