Man in the Shade
Musik & Text: Helmut Bennek
Do you
Remember
The old shed
Down the bay
Do you
Remember
The old man - stood there
Every day
In his worn-out suit, in the shade with flowers in his hands
Do you
Remember
The old man's
Wrinkled face
Do you
Remember
His eyes
Full of grace
And I knew his dream would come true
'Cause
The man in the shade smiled always a bit
He always believed, believed in it
The man in the shade smiled always a bit
Do you
Remember
The old man's
Lonely fate
Do you
Remember
His only
Reason to wait
The day the ocean brings back his love
'Cause
The man in the shade smiled always a bit
He always believed, believed in it
The man in the shade smiled always a bit
Do you
Remember
The years - went by
Anyway
Do you
Remember
A ship - came in
One day
And he knew his dream came true.:
'Cause
The man in the shade smiled always a bit
He always believed, believed in it
The man in the shade smiled always a bit
