lyrics

loving you is a misty day
on an open field
without compensation

with no refrain
and no illusion’s door
anymore

counting down until you are gone
the arithmetic
of my unbound sorrow

now I’ve got a name
that I keep in my book
take a look

writing that name
I recall the time, the place

I knew it was the first time, the first time,
I wanted you to stay with me
