(Verse 1) The old man by the fountain, tossing bread to the birds, Whispers to the silence, but no one hears his words. A clock ticks in the distance, marking moments passed, He waits for an answer, but the stillness lasts. (Chorus) Silent faces, drifting by, Eyes like windows, locked inside. In a world that keeps on turning, Who remembers why? (Verse 2) The woman at the market, hands her coins with a smile, But her laughter fades quickly; it only lasts a while. She’s searching through the crowd for a face she used to know, But memories fade, and the faces go. (Chorus) Silent faces, drifting by, Eyes like windows, locked inside. In a world that keeps on turning, Who remembers why? (Bridge) We’re strangers in the daylight, shadows in the night, Reaching out for meaning, but it slips out of sight. If we stop for a moment, if we open the door, Will we find we’re not alone anymore? (Chorus) Silent faces, drifting by, Eyes like windows, locked inside. In a world that keeps on turning, Who remembers why? (Verse 3) The woman at the market, hands her coins with a smile, But her laughter fades quickly; it only lasts a while. She’s searching through the crowd for a face she used to know, But memories fade, and the faces go. (Bridge) We’re strangers in the daylight, shadows in the night, Reaching out for meaning, but it slips out of sight. If we stop for a moment, if we open the door, Will we find we’re not alone anymore? (Outro) The fountain keeps flowing, the market hums along, The silent faces linger, but they’ve all moved on.
