Peacocks

Remember those days when you and I were young and carefree
November had made our little town all sad and gloomy
You were coming down to my place
And to the future to embrace
Hearing nothing but the song of rain

Your finger was drawing on my skin an endless circle
A whisper, a thrill and then I knew it'd be eternal
Forgetting all about my past
Recognizing I had found at last
The love I thought I was looking for in vain

Deep in your eyes
I see the colors of my whole life passing by
The stormy skies
The green and blue thousand-eyed peacock feathers' fan
The dawning light
Of every summer morning looking at the sea
Waiting there for you and me
May the time remain on our side

You stand still holding back all your tears there in the doorway
Then you feel that you can breathe again when I say your name
Our children walking behind you
What a great memory to hold on to
For my journey to the other side

Deep in your eyes
I see the colors of my whole life passing by
The stormy skies
The green and blue thousand-eyed peacock feathers' fan
The dawning light
Of every summer morning looking at the sea
Waiting there for you and me
Bless the time I spent by your side

You stand still holding back all your tears there in the doorway
Then you feel that you can breathe again when I say your name
Our children walking behind you
What a great memory to hold on to
For my journey to the place

From where no dead or living soul has ever come back
Your lips on mine for the last time
Send shivers up and down my spine
Most beautiful way to say goodbye
