The Previous Day

The things you crushed Your lips upon The kiss that was there To never exist I’ll see you in Paris I’ll look beyond the mist Days have passed and moved alone And it seems you have grown into The simple thoughts That bring about home I’ll see you in Berlin I’ll see you in Rome Sunday clouds Wish upon Saturdays And I suppose you could say I rely on you, as you rely on me I’ll see you in Germany Burgundy, the walls, I look upon so ruggedly My shoulders won’t fold The warmth that I hold Hope will not come But I’ll be there, here and from I’ll see you in London I’ll see you in the mirror before me Up and down these alleys Don’t forget to run I know you think you’re a loner And you probably can’t take it much longer I’ll see you in California I’ll take you back to days of Macedonia
