| Some time ago | |
| And for a period of time | |
| I lived on another planet | |
| And in another galaxy | |
| Where time | |
| Didn't exist | |
| There were no seasons | |
| No nights or days | |
| There were no calendars | |
| No hourglasses | |
| Sometimes | |
| I wrote letters to earth | |
| To ask what year, what season it was | |
| Sometimes | |
| I wrote letters to earth | |
| To find out how old | |
| I had become | |
| And sometimes | |
| I was seventy years old | |
| But other times my granddad wasn't even born | |
| So my letters to him were returned | |
| And I had to note on the envelope | |
| Which year it was supposed to arrive in | |
| Once, for a test, | |
| I sent a letter addressed "Planet Tellus anno 2050" | |
| But I never got neither an answer nor the letter in return | |
| I don't know how long | |
| I lived there | |
| I forgot the meaning of words like "Tomorrow" and "soon" and "suddenly" | |
| I became both patient and impatient | |
| The strange thing, though | |
| Even if time didn't exist | |
| I always had plenty of time |
