Stares

When still little we thought it would be great to travel far
When still little we always wanted to act like the adults
But the trouble with life is you grow older and tired so very fast
And in the blink of an eye, your troubles blow up alike, with no alibis

You know, you know, it sounded great to us then
You used to say: "You'll see I'll be a businessman
With style and grace I'll fly around the world on a plane."
Two decades later you're doing that job with distaste

When still little we thought it would be great to travel far
When still little we thought our country was so trivial
But the trouble with heart is there are family ties that you can't deceive
And the world seems so cold, maybe just China's Wall can take you by surprise

You know, you know, it sounded great to us then
You used to say: "You'll see I'll be a businessman
With style and grace I'll fly around the world on a plane."
Two decades later you're doing that job with distaste
You know, you know, it sounded great to us then
You used to say: "You'll see I'll be a businessman
With style and grace I'll fly around the world on a plane."
Two decades on you'd rather teach school kids some French
