about

Words
I saw them when I was looking out of my window... The clouds were slowly passing by, flying above the city, the fields, the mountains... “Where are they going to be tomorrow?” I thought. “What if they had preserved their shapes and came back here later? How would they see us?”
And then more questions popped up, philosophical rather than inquisitive...
Another electronic arrangement of ours, although the basic track was played on the classical guitar.

Drawing
Children would illustrate this song in the same way, wouldn’t they? In the same genuine way...

lyrics

White passing clouds...
Clear turquoise sky...
A familiar landscape watching us die...

Where do they come from?
Where do they go?
Where are their homes?
Where do they belong?

What is their meaning?
What are their goals?
Questions we pose
while slowly those pilgrims pass and disappear.

White passing clouds...
Same turquoise sky...
One hell of a landscape...
No one left to die…

What was their meaning?
Did they have any goal?
We used to pose questions
but the traces of pilgrims are long gone...

They disappeared.
