I jump again
Into tales of some time
Splattered leaves all around
An uneven rhyme
A faded sensation
On a clear photograph
I‘m a time traveler
Looking for you
From the future
Here to save you

You are the sky
Everything else is just the weather
If you look for the rainbow
You have to walk through the rain
Was there ever innocence
I’m fine with its loss
I‘m a time traveler
Coming from far
From the future
A beautiful star

I’m a time traveler
Layer upon layer
Through time and space
Got lost in that maze

I’m a time traveler
Was trying to save you
But could only love you
To the moon

How often have I kissed the moon In these dark times
The eye starts to see
Try to move the wall sideways
It becomes a bridge
And if it rains
Then let it rain
I’m a time traveler
Looking for you
From the future
Here to save you

I’m a time traveler
Layer upon layer
Through time and space
Got lost in that maze

I’m a time traveler
Was trying to save you
But could only love you
To the moon

How often have I kissed the moon
