lyrics

January 29th, 2007

Marie was over yesterday. We had “silent reading” in the afternoon as she had studying to do. It was really nice and there were several moments which would have been “cinema perfect ” if I’d kissed her. But something in her manner always tells me that would be a tragic mistake.

----------------------

When we were reading on the couch
You leg was keeping my feet warm
I may have seemed serene and indifferent
But inside my heart there raged a storm

It was so hard not to touch you
Not to shower you in kisses like the rain
Not to say it over and over
Not to say again and again

How I love you, how I love you
How I love you, how I love you
I said I was going to live without fear
But I was afraid you’d cover your ears

And sing: “La la la la la la la la la – I can’t hear you!”
