Where have you gone, mother, leaving me here all alone? And now I'm going down slow,
Where have you gone, sister, to come back no more?
Planted like a tree, I can't move my feet to follow you!!!
Why do you come, milkman? To deliver the milk? But now I'm going down slow
Why do you come, father? Just to bring the news that...
Planted like a tree, I can't move my feet to follow you!!!
Mother says: "If we cannot make the sun stand still, we will make him run"
I recall upon reflection how easy it used to be to me
Time and places, different situations which made some sense to me
Yes, to me...
Now I know
What was the point
Of the concern
Which made you flee!
Where have you gone, mother, leaving me here all alone?
And now I'm going down slow,
Where have you gone, sister, to come back no more?
Planted like a tree, I can't move my feet to follow you!!!
