A hundred ways and each in vain And you’d never grasp the agonies Of an old good friend You have never felt the pain It hurts… It does, I swear More than a wound, a blow I’m off; today I close my eyes forever Sorry my dear, it’s all talking nonsense When you expect things on the other side And I’m weeping my tears in vain Yesterday I was dawn, Brooding over a thousand unhappy things My loneliness and your being away Far and away Over the seas Where bird fly the other way up And I’m still here, locked up Lonely, deep inside The chocolate cake and the coffee Make me sick The vanilla ice cream gives me a blow I do not smoke, neither drink I try to sleep, but even that doesn’t work Just a trick Listening to music Unheard melodies Unheard and unspoken agonies Of the only one that matters Always shut before my eyes And you guess I’m having fun Christmas time and the pine tree Withered and empty Christmas and the pile of snow Playing with some fellows in the park Gives me a blow Christmas time and you’re away Guess you never ever come back again And I have to cherish my dreams in vain
