Good Advices lyrics

When you greet a stranger

Look at his shoes

Keep your money in your shoes

Put your trouble behind

When you greet a stranger

Look at her hands

Keep your money in your hands

Put your travel behind

Who are you going to call for?

What do you have to say?

Keep your hat on your head

Home is a long way away

At the end of the day, I'll forget your name

I'd like it here if I could leave

And see you from a long way away

When you greet a stranger

Look at his shoes

Keep your memories in your shoes

Put your travel behind

Who are you going to call for?

What do you have to say?

Keep your hat on your head

Home is a long way away

At the end of the day

When there are no friends

When there are no lovers

Who are you going to call for?

What do you have to change?

A familiar face, a foreign place

I'll forget your name

I'd like it here if I could leave

And see you from a long way away

Who are you going to call for?

What do you have to say?

Keep your hat on your head

Home is a long way away
