Matt

[Verse]
Matt was born on a Sunday
forty something years old
his father didn't even know about him
from the world war when he returned
They lived so modestly but proudly
in a small, tame Slavonian village
the village grandmothers did not like him
when he passes, they draw the curtains on
[Chorus]
And I, how could I see him even now
he brings horses back from the water at a trot
the village talks, Matt doesn't care
only the swift pursuit horses
[Verse 2]
Then came the nineties
father said now or never
and Matt started as if from a dream
nowhere the same but with a big heart
His brother was killed that winter
burned the village, took the horses away
they found their father after a month or two
a great sadness broke him
[Chorus]
And I, how could I see him even now
he brings horses back from the water at a trot
the village talks, Matt doesn't care
only the swift pursuit horses
[Verse 3]
I was with Matt last Sunday
at the church after morning mass
with him, his son and his brothers' children
so where are you Matt, how is she, I ask him
He tells me, everything will be like before
the village will decorate the gates again
we will return everything, but never one thing
memories that have disappeared
[Chorus]
And I, how could I see him even now
he brings horses back from the water at a trot
the village talks, Matt doesn't care
only the swift pursuit horses
The village talks, Matt doesn't care
he just chases the horses even faster, come on
