IN THE BOTTOM OF THE GLASS
Tell me what's up
Under that classic hat
And explain to me why
You didn't get angry about that load
Tell me what you have
Hidden in that drawer
And show me the photos
In the tight wallet
Tell me what you see
In your scariest dreams
Think again about the trench
Or to the boundaries you don't know
You
How far you have come in your life
So many stories you've been through and now here
You find yourself dealing with your years
You're still trying to understand
The compromises and worries
You
Your homeland that vanished in an instant
How hard everything is more distant now
Little time and so many things to explain
What answers are you looking for
At the bottom of the glass
Tell me what you feel
Looking back on your mistakes
Please give me advice
It's right to deny
Come on, explain to me what it is
And how many loves have you known
How many times have you given up
And now what is in the heart
Your tobacco your wine
Your favorite jacket
Your woman is your home
These are dreams come true
Seeing your grandchildren grow up
The most hoped for privilege
Have lunch with your kids again
Hope to be understood
You
How far you have come in your life
How many things you have experienced and now here
You find yourself dealing with your eyes
You always try to see a little further
You
Your homeland that vanished in an instant
How hard everything is more distant
Little time and no one to listen
What answers are you looking for
At the bottom of the glass
From the counter of a bar,
looking at these heroes, the real heroes,
who have known sacrifices and war, rigid rules and misery..
How much we have to learn...
