Lyrics
Broken legs and sticky shoes
At the side of the road
Hitchhiking for several days
He wandered all time long
Getting into a car, he’s coming back home
He doesn’t know himself
Why he did this long walk
But he learnt something instead
Something instead
Something instead
Something instead
He has no wife, no child, lives all alone
Nothing held him back to leave from home
Walls just gave him good protection from cold
He would have lived Something else
Living abroad
But he learnt something instead
Something instead
Something instead
Something instead
To the questions he had in his head
He’s got an answer now
The reason why he lives
He’s got an answer now
Broken legs and sticky shoes
At the side of the road
No matter the place he’s coming from
He’s coming back home
He has not won money but he doesn’t care
He has turned back and he doesn’t feel the same
‘Cause he learnt something instead
Something instead
Something instead
Something instead
Something instead
Something instead
Something instead
