Young girl in the market
gives it to the men
when the men leave
her eyes are red
when her eyes are closed again
she sees a dark market of a violin
and she sings
“they say the most horrible things
but i hear violins”
“when i close my eyes
i am at the center of the sun
and i cannot be hurt by anything
this wicked world has done”
Young boy in the market
follows all the men
when the men leave
he’s out of his head
when his eyes are closed again
he sees a dark market a violin
and he sings
“they break the most beautiful things
but i hear violins”
“when i close my eyes
i am at the center of the sun
and i cannot be hurt by anything
this wicked world had done
i look into your eyes
and i am at the center of the sun
and i cannot be hurt
by anything this wicked world had done
i am at the center of the sun.”
young boy in the market
sees the girl alone
and asks her
“have you lost your way home?”
she sings
“you say the most beautiful things
just like my violins
i look into your eyes
i am at the center of the sun
and i cannot be hurt
by anything this wicked world has done
and when i close my eyes
i am at the center of the sun
and i cannot be hurt
by anything this wicked world has done
‘cause i hear violins
i hear violins
i hear violins
i hear violins
i am at the center of the sun.”
I hear violins.
