Lyrics

[00:06.92] Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
[00:10.82] Write, for example,
[00:12.49] 'The night is shattered and the blue stars shiver in the distance.'“
[00:17.33] The night wind revolves in the sky and sings.
[00:20.14] Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
[00:22.07] I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.
[00:26.34] Through nights like this one I held her in my arms.
[00:33.97] I kissed her again and again under the endless sky.
[00:37.36] She loved me, and sometimes I loved her too.
[00:41.57] How could one not have loved her great still eyes.
[00:45.48] Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
[00:47.83] To think that I do not have her. To feel that I have lost her.
[00:55.47] To hear the immense night, still more immense without her.
[00:59.96] And the verse falls to the soul like dew to the pasture.
[01:08.66] What does it matter that my love could not keep her.
[01:11.90] The night is shattered and she is not with me.
[01:15.06] This is all. In the distance someone is singing. In the distance.
[01:18.25] My soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.
[01:23.44] My sight searches for her as though to go to her.
[01:28.78] My heart looks for her, and she is not with me.
[01:33.78] The same night whitening the same trees.
[01:38.33] We, of that time, are no longer the same.
[01:40.88] I no longer love her, that's certain, but how I loved her.
[01:46.56] My voice tried to find the wind to touch her hearing.
[01:50.77] Another's. She will be another's. Like my kisses before.
[01:56.48] Her voice. Her bright body. Her infinite eyes.
[02:01.24] I no longer love her, that's certain, but maybe I love her.
[02:09.06] Love is so short; forgetting is so long.
[02:13.05] Because through nights like this one I held her in my arms
[02:18.13] my soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.
[02:23.21] Though this be the last pain that she makes me suffer
[02:27.03] and these the last verses that I write for her.
