Short Man / China (Lyrics)
Steps on empty streets, lost my map and dreams
Tenor and ma feet, ease my way through this, this, this town.

Always sworn by different places, differently wrong
Writing on requested boards as landscapes turned my clock.
My clock...

China is my heart
wedded to a past.
Far forgetful face, summoning a trace,
for love.

Like a tree that thirsts for hunger, hammering its clench
Through an empty street in Barcelona fear's my trade and my trend
With my raincoat on, travelling the world
Fingers like a thorn, no more on my own, no more.
My music.

Empty were my days so find me covering my face
Something caused a marriage in a courtyard one fine day

China was my heart,
wedded to my past
Tired of resistance, peaceful in my stance
No harm, Music, ma music.

Steps on empty streets, host my map and dreams
Tenor and my feet, ease my way through this, through this...
