Today, I thought that every dance would have a dancer Today, I thought that every singer had a song But today, I found that I was wrong. Today, I thought that every mother had a father Today, I thought that every father had a son But today, I found that I was wrong. (Chorus:) Don't ask me why the seasons change, It's so (...?), it's so (...?) Don't ask me why today's today Yesterday is not tomorrow* Today, I thought that every question had an answer Today, I thought that every answer was the proof But today, I learned the truth. Chorus Today - yesterday - yesterday Chorus (bis)
*außer auf Hindi, da heißt beides "kal" (aber die Hindus glauben ja auch an den Kreislauf der Wiedergeburten ;-)
An dieser Anmerkung - sowie an dem Fehlen der 2., unverständlich gesungenen Zeile des Refrains - merkt man übrigens, daß alle im www kursierenden Textfassungen bei mir abgeschrieben sind, und zwar von der alten Fassung, als diese Fußnote noch oben im Text stand ;-)
