Fall
I saw you againFor the first time in agesYou looked just the sameBut you sounded so differentYour manner of speaking andThe tone of your voiceWere so changed.If I were a birdI'd have fluttered awayBut as I don't have wingsI was required to stayIn my place at the registerRinging you upIn the most awkward wayIn that stupid café...I saw you againFor the first time in agesYou looked just the sameBut you sounded so differentYour manner of speaking andThe tone of your voiceWere so changed.And I'd never seen that shirt beforeSongtexteAnd I'd never seen that bag beforeAnd I shouldn't want to see you moreOften, but I do...And I'd never seen that scarf beforeAnd I'd never seen that hat beforeAnd I shouldn't want to see you moreOften, but I do, I do, I do...It's been a whole year.It's been twelve whole months.The innumerable minutes—I counted each one.In a manner of speakingI still really love youAnd I can't get you, can't get youOut of my head.I've spent all this timeIn extensive reflectionAnd in my recollectionThe things that I saidWere gratuitousIn their emotional contentAnd I'm sorryIf saying them scared you away.I shouldn't have acted the way that I actedI shouldn't have called youI should have retractedThe things that I saidAt the moment I said themOr better yetI should've never been born.I should have retractedThe things that I saidAt the moment I said themI shouldn't have called youI shouldn't have acted the way that I actedI need to be punishedI need to be punishedI need to be punishedI need to be punished...Every thought inside my headIs suddenly exploding;Every object in my roomIs suddenly too dull;Everything I feel inside my heartIs fully inappropriate;Every object in my roomIs suddenly too dull...There's only a window thereOnly a window thereOnly a window, only a window(You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)There's only a window, only a window, only a window, only a window there…There's only a window thereOnly a window thereOnly a window, only a window(You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)There's only a window, only a window, only a window, only a window there…...There's only a window thereOnly a window thereOnly a window, only a window(You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)There's only a window, only a window, only a window, only a window there…There's only a window thereOnly a window thereOnly a window, only a window(You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)There's only a window, only a window, only a window, only a window there…There's only a window thereOnly a window thereOnly a window, only a window(You can do it you can do it you can do it you can do it)There's only a window, only a window, only a window, only a window there…I close my eyes andIn my memories,I'm drowning in your coat;I'm gathering the leaves that fall...In my memories,I'm drowning in your coat...I'm just jumping in the leavesthatfall....
