Words like "balloons", "Aladin's lamp", "rainbow" and "holiday",
"mountains" and "rooms", those words I used to say
Seems long ago, when I spoke of pretending,
because today, I've found new words to say.
Now words like "why", "good-bye, my love", "regret" and "loneliness"
are words I cry since you have loved me less
Come back to me, and I will speak of living,
and loving you the way I used to do.
The days go by, in time the days will turn to years
Years can be lonely when love has gone
You learn the words, sad words that have the taste of tears,
when there is no-one for you to lean upon.
Words like "belong", "forevermore", "always", and "constantly",
tender and strong, these words you said to me
I wish we could go back to when we spoke of
sun and blue birds instead of sad new words.
