”WHEN YOU TALKED ABOUT LOVE
MY HEART FLEW AWAY UP TO ABOVE
ONLY YOU COULD MAKE ME DREAM
YOU WERE THE BLUE, THE SKY, THE SEA”

I ALSO REMEMBER A COUPLE
OF FAR-OFF SONGS
SONGS IN THE KITCHEN
ON A SUNDAY MORNING
MELANCHOLIES OF OUR DADDIES
IN SEARCH OF LOST ENERGIES
AND LOST FRIENDSHIPS...

HOPELESS LOVES
FINISHED LOVES
LIVED SONGS
IN PORTABLE RECORD PLAYERS
BUT IT MIGHT BE EASIER
TO DEPLORE TIME-THAT-HAS-GONE-
AND-NEVER-COMES-BACK-ANYMORE
THAN TO ADMIT...

AND WHEN THEY SAY
IT USED TO BE BETTER
I REPLY AND SAY
THAT IT’S NICE TO BE HERE...

BY NOW THEY ARE
BY NOW THEY ARE ONLY
BY NOW THEY ARE MORE THAN EVER
FAR-OFF SONGS
NOSTALGIA IS A TRAP
AND IF WALKING INTO IT FEELS SOFT
STAYING IN IT DOESN’T...

”WHEN YOU TALKED ABOUT LOVE
MY HEART FLEW AWAY UP TO ABOVE”

OUR DADDIES’ NOSTALGIA
PROBABLY TO TALK A LITTLE
BIT MORE ABOUT LOVE
SINCE THEY CAN HARDLY
TALK ABOUT IT ANYMORE...

AND WHEN THEY SAY THAT
I’LL UNDERSTAND A DAY
THEY’RE RIGHT
BUT NOT FOR THE MOMENT...

BY NOW THEY ARE
BY NOW THEY ARE ONLY
BY NOW THEY ARE, IN EVERY SENSE
FAR-OFF SONGS
LOST PASSIONS
EVEN WHEN A BIT
FOR SURE REMAINS...

“ WHEN YOU TALKED ABOUT LOVE
MY HEART FLEW AWAY UP TO ABOVE
ONLY YOU COULD MAKE ME DREAM
YOU WERE THE BLUE, THE SKY, THE SEA”
