All night I was alone, all day, the only one,
All night I was alone, all day, the only one.
In the city's heart, the only one like me,
In the city's heart, the only one like me.
All night I was alone, all day, the only one,
In the city's heart, the only one like me,
In the city's heart, the only one like me.
I, the river, the storm, every wave's embrace,
I, the river, the storm, every wave's embrace.
I, the river, the storm, every wave's embrace,
I drank myself,
I drank myself, thirsty for ages, I,
In the city's heart, the only one like me,
In the city's heart, the only one like me.
No heart in the world to hear my softest tread,
No heart in the world to hear my softest tread,
No heart in the world to hear my softest tread.
Yet, all heartbeats, all echoes,
Yet, all heartbeats, all echoes, hearing them, I.
In the city's heart, the only one like me,
In the city's heart, the only one like me.
Why hurry on, traveler, take a breath and stay?
Why hurry on, traveler, take a breath and stay?
Why hurry on, traveler, take a breath and stay?
Today, a withered tree,
Today, a withered tree, tomorrow, your shade, I.
In the city's heart, the only one like me,
In the city's heart, the only one like me.
All night I was alone, all day, the only one,
In the city's heart, the only one like me,
In the city's heart, the only one like me.
