The rain makes the pavements and walls seem to shine
I’m aware of the fact that there’s someone behind me
Footsteps I hear that are other than mine
I try to walk faster but the stranger stays with me
Every step that I take seems to quicken his pace
He’s alongside me now but I daren’t turn to see him
Then headlamps like searchlights flash over his face
And I see the world in his eyes
I’m down at the sea and I stand among sand-dunes
The sky hangs so heavy and the sea’s thick and gray
The wind bends the reed-grass and whistles its sad tune
It bites at the water and chases the waves
There’s someone beside me — I know it’s the stranger
This time I’m not scared, this time there’s no fear
I turn and I see him standing there in the darkness
The clouds part for a second and the moon shines so clear
And I see the world in his eyes
And I see the world in his eyes
