Verse 1:
In the mornings, I was filled with joy and laughter
In the evenings, I would cry myself to sleep

I was dreaming of the great forever after
Dreaming of windmills and of swimming in the sea


Chorus:
Times were changing faster,
that I never understood...

Days would turn to evenings
turn to nights and disappear


Verse 2:
I was living mainly in the city
Though I have been a country boy before

I did everything, very young and silly
Just because I found my life to be a bore


Chorus:
Times were changing faster,
that I never understood...

Days would turn to evenings
turn to nights and disappear
