The neighbor grumbles: “You’re not worried again,”
I button my shirt and step out through the door.
Let the world stand still, let the trams ring and spin,
Today, life is wide—I’m walking for more.
[Pre-chorus]
No need to rush, no need to explain,
The city’s awake, but I’m chasing the sun.
There’s a road in my step and a tune in my veins,
And the day’s just begun—it’s already won.
[Chorus]
Don’t frown, my brother, don’t hide your eyes,
While the guitar’s singing, we’ll never be lost.
Any distance is close when the heart’s on the rise,
And freedom’s the compass we follow at all cost.
[Chorus 2]
Ignore the fashion and the weather outside,
Give me a corner, keep my freedom alive!
Let the whole neighborhood laugh if they must,
Fun’s not a favor—it’s our secret trust.
Ignore the fashion and the weather tonight,
Give me a corner, hold on to the light.
If life calls from the doorstep with a smile,
Answer her: “Oh, the road—I’ll walk that mile
