about

And that’s how the story begins, with a “strange kid”, 🚴 as the reporter Paul Rogers recalls…

Paul Rogers, a very famous journalist, during his long career had once investigated, a very strange case about a 9 year old boy called Winston Smith who, one night, mysteriously disappeared from his home and was never found.
Winston was raised solely by his mother Jane, since his father David Smith, Lieutenant of the legendary battleship “Oceania”, disappeared one night with the rest of the “Oceania” crew, while they were on a top secret mission.
Even though a few years had passed since Winston lost his father, who was officially considered dead by the Navy while serving his country, he still believed deep in his heart that he could meet him again one day. How could this be possible?

LYRICS

Through all these years of hard work, prestigious I’ve become,
my name is Paul Rogers, the famous newsman
Most stories I have written, lost in oblivion
None has ever moved me, apart from only one

I can’t, I can’t I can’t forget

One of the most mysterious cases, I investigated years ago
A boy that still remains traceless, a strange kid, in a strange world

Jane, his mother’s name, from school we knew each other.
Smith, David - Paul, the name of his father.
He was lieutenant of the “Oceania” ship,
That disappeared one night, on a top secret trip

This sorrowful story I can’t, I can’t forget

One of the most mysterious cases, I investigated years ago
A boy that still remains traceless, a strange kid, in a strange world

I never met him, but I always felt him, like the son I never had
When feeling alone, his diary’s notes, where my faithful friend
I’ll never stop trying, my longing to find him, will never end
Where are you now? Winston, where are you? Where are you? Where are you now? Winston, where are you? Where are you?

One of the most mysterious cases, I investigated years ago
A boy that still remains traceless, a strange kid, in a strange world

A strange, a strange, a strange kid
A strange, a strange, a strange world
