[Chorus] Maybe you could hunt down my memoriеs Find a place where it could havе been possible To change the course of the river I'm floating on Wouldn't it be sweet? Could be easier than what it seems [Verse 2] I almost dressed it but they're still a blur The outlines are far from being sharp, but I remember very clear The feeling that we would become someone In spite of being wronged and deceived by our peers and the whole universe [Chorus] There are stars way bigger than the sun They shine bright, they seem to wink at us But they don't move, they don't know who we are As the years go by, will we ever become someone? [Bridge] Oh, what we've become, you'd never guess It's like we traveled at the speed of light What we wished for then and the times we failed We have outdone ourselves so many times Faster and stronger than what we wished when we were fifteen [Chorus] Call me or call my name, I'll be right where you left me You'll see me shining across the night, just like Alpha Centauri And I'll be waiting for you to look for another spin Call me or call my name, I'll be right where you left me You'll see me shining across the night, just like Alpha Centauri And I'll be waiting for you to look for another spin [Outro] Call me or call my name, I'll be right where you left me You'll see me shining across the night, just like Alpha Centauri And I'll be waiting for you to look for another spin
