Lyrics : Elia

The motion of Beijing
Ever building, tearing down
Proof of life wiped clean
Now you'll never hit the ground

The multitude of little shops
Selling pencils and erasers
Turn to smoke and dust
Only rubble, ash, and vapor

That's what aches the most
All the anchors now are gone
Floating like a ghost
A melody without a song

Elia, Elia
The winds of change, the fact remains
The past is past
You can never go home again

Now mornings turn to afternoons
And the stones, they scorch your feet
June, it sinks into your skin
You think this is what youth should be

The fat cat at the еntrance
Of the gravestonеs and the greenery
The lake, it calls you in
But you're bested by timidity

The light, it shines like gold
And her camera freezes time
Like she knows something you don't
Right now everything is fine

Elia, Elia
The leaves have changed, the fact remains
The past is past
You can never go home again

Swapping clothes and drinking wine
"Here's Wonderwall," she says
With a smile
With a smile

Elia, Elia
The winds of change, the fact remains
Elia, Elia
The time is now, the water's fine
The past is past
But the future is yours and mine
