lyrics

I smell the steam of jasmine rice,
and I watch you closely,
while you explain the world to me,
and I can tell that you have grown old.

I hear the small talk of folks around,
and I watch you closely,
while you open up your past to me,
now I can see why you work so hard.

Refrain:
Wrinkles on friends‘ faces,
a collection of life‘s traces,
telling stories, leaving spaces.

I hear the sound of celestial scales,
and I watch you closely,
while you wipe away your black stripes,
and every teardrop echoes loud and clear.

I take a drag of your cigarette,
and I watch you closely,
while you try to hide your weak side,
and I wish I could see through every lie.

Refrain

Johanna had exchanged the buzzing life of her hometown Berlin for the remoteness of Rauland to study the hardanger fiddle. ... more
