Now I’m heading home
To solid ground
Realized that all the lies I’ve told myself have died
Bring me to the place
Where I belong
Filled with all the memories and dreams I have ignored

There is always time
To get back on track
Tearing down the walls
Slowly every step
Now I see myself
Building up a world of bridges

There is one more thing
You need to know
That I forgive myself for all the lies I said before
Now I see the road
Of leading lights
Showing me where I should go and what to leave behind

There is always time
To get back on track
Tearing down the walls
Slowly every step
Now I see myself
Building up a world of bridges
You will find a way
To begin again
No more time to waste
Or to play pretend
Now I see myself
Building up a world of bridges

I remember all the things that I went through
All the lies and blurry lines and city lights I knew
Now I'm strong enough to see what lays inside
And I can feel it all

There is always time
To get back on track
Tearing down the walls
Slowly every step
Now I see myself
Building up a world of bridges
You will find a way
To begin again
No more time to waste
Or to play pretend
Now I see myself
Building up a world of bridges

My number 1 for Eurovision 2023! Go Alika!

[ΒαγγέληςΤαράμπολας]

I don't think Eurovision has seen a more original and interesting ballad ever

[zapphoenixstudios]

Almost half a year later and I still love listening to this song ❤️

[WalkerMeow]

This was my favorite for Eurovision by far

[Skypostever]

People don't know how to vote. Alika deserved to win Eurovision.

[mariyannuism]

I listen to this everytime I feel anxious or I have a panic attack. It's a very uplifting and soothing song. Thank you, Alika, for sharing this with the world.

[kagari]

I'm usually not very fond of ballads at Eurovision but this is the exception. This song is so addiciting it deserves way more recognition

[Daisyhatingugolyee]

I keep listening to this on repeat. It's so mesmerizing.

[Milo_on_pawzz]

As an estonian, i am very touched by all the supportive comments ❤

[esc.proudness]

Oh my lord. What should I say? This is just WONDERFUL. So powerful, classy... great work, clearly rooting for you from Italy

[markhere]

One of the best I’ve heard in a while, like Estonia’s own Adele!

[nataliiavoloshyn]

This is just amazing! Lot’s of love from Ukraine 🇺🇦 ❤🇪🇪 I’m crying

[enricopaoletti]

This is pure magic. It is between her and Ollie and they're both great. She is an angel and Ollie is the demon❤️

[tonney-est-muy-funny]

I mean no disrespect whatsoever to loreen but ALIKA had the most emotional, powerful and deep song i have heard ever so from me ALIKA thank you and you deserved so much more

[kirstyhoughton]

I love this song I voted for her still listening

[voronasira]

This is the best I heard of 2023 Eurovision songs so far.

[_ld]

I just can't stop listening to this since yesterday it's been on repeat in my car, while I'm cooking, working and just dancing everywhere I go!!

[ullarende]

Lausa jumalik laul ja esitus! Esile tulevad kõik Alika rikkaliku hääle nüansid.

[lazar]

The only reason I like the live version better is not because i think she sang better or had better coreography or styling.
I think the live version is better because it ends with an applause.
An applause she deserves for writing and singing such a beautiful and strong song, for getting chosen to represent her country, for making it to the finals and for the other thousands of things we don't even know she went through. I'm out of words, and now out of space on my spotify playlist.


(Btw, sending love from Serbia :D)
(Yes, I know I am a year late, I don't know why)
