in the gentle morning
the smell of french cocoa on an autumnal day i woke up a bit earlier than usual i chose a hat (inside)in front of the looking glass today i have a date with you the path that leads to the forest is full of fallen leaves it reminded me of the first time we kissed and my heart throbbed i rush up the lane that smells like flowers and the wind sounds faintly like a mysterious harp you whisper sweet words to me and kiss me again at this time you're bound to hear some music coming from somewhere and so we are both bound to swear love to each other (forever) when i was a child and felt like crying i would walk alone in the forest i still remember this sometimes but i don't cry anymore when you hear the wind whispering when you kiss suddenly the magic of a distant summer is here again with you |

it's a little after 10
in the morning I am all by myself in the bath I don't have a single plan yet today, though I'll take my time today I'll shampoo I'll wash away everything as best as I can why is a girl as beautiful as you crying? there is no girl as wonderful as you anywhere It's 3 in the afternoon and there's no end I saw the same dream as always I unexpectedly met with the familiar face of a friend and said goodbye it's a sunny day and the wind is somewhat colder than yesterday I was just staring vacantly at the city through the window pane why is a girl as beautiful as you crying? there is no girl as wonderful as you anywhere during really sad times I had better cry as much as I want but I don't even know why I am crying why is a girl as beautiful as you crying? there is no girl as wonderful as you anywhere It's a little bit past midnight I am all by myself in the bedroom I can't sleep so I call someone I can sleep now, though |

lovers never
have time enough they want to meet but keep passing each other in the street and if they finally manage to meet they don't manage to tell each other what is most important when they talk on the phone there's those disturbing silences and sudden interruptions i try to listen carefully to what you say (it's so distant) and feel happy with the insignificant things you say that's a symphony for lovers time goes faster than all those people running i hear a song from somewhere a song i had long forgotten the two lovers try to listen to it carefully the words lovers whisper to each other and the song someone is humming as he walks in the streets all this gets mingled and becomes a symphony for lovers time goes faster than all those people running the sound of the subway and a song i had long forgotten the two lovers are listening carefully today another couple will be formed another couple will break up if i ever see you again i'll tell you everything can you hear? this symphony for lovers |

the dream i had last night is to become true maybe i shall be dead soon there's nothing to be sad about today i'll go alone to an amusement park i know and look at the gondolas go by and if i talk to you on a trunk call i'm sure just that would be enough to make me weep it's not that i'm sad since the day we met until today i've been very happy people are born then they fall in love with someone and then one day they die it's completely meaningless just like a short film i once saw in an aeroplane if the dream i had last night is to have a sequel i don't want to see you weep i can't forget your laughing face on the photo i've kept since that day people are born then they love someone and in the end they die everything over and over again just like the short film i saw in an aeroplane if the dream i saw last night is to become true and if there is to be a sequel to this dream people are born then they fall in love with someone and then one day they die it's not that bad it's just like this short film i once saw in an aeroplane |
