Sophia Songtext
von Nerina Pallot

five o′clock and a fire escape symphony
spillin' out across the road and the square
and the sky′s the same as your own do you think of me?
do the parks and trees and the leaves reach you there
after the rain in the lonely hours he haunts me
callin' out again and again

Sophia, Sophia
i'm burning, i′m burning
it′s a fire, a fire
i cannot put out
Sophia, Sophia
i'm learning that some things
i can′t go without
and one of them is him


now i walk these streets like a stranger in my hometown
learn the language from the words when i speak
but he changed me I'm his ghost since he came around
now i count the hours, and the days in the weeks
passion and silence
every word, every line, a measure
it′s the science of the soul
and his books they breathe a reason
and now, i wanna know

Sophia, Sophia
i'm burning, i′m burning
it's a fire, a fire
i cannot put out
Sophia, Sophia
i'm learning that some things
i can′t go without
and one of them is him

and you with your new born eyes
have you ever loved a man like i love him
do your hurt but still feel alive
like never before?
oh, Sophia, Sophia


Sophia, Sophia
i′m burning, i'm burning
it′s a fire, a fire
i cannot put out
Sophia, Sophia
i'm learning that some things
i can′t go without

i, can't, go, without him...
