Just Another Day

Another day Again no lover to warm my heart Another night I know I shall sit alone in darkness Another walk in le jardin sans amor Me, my life has ended, she left me heartless All around young lovers stroll, hand in hand As I admire old men playing chess Children fly their kites They run and sing, spring in their steps Cotton candy vendors shout their wares The cafes are full, with life and love I wish I could believe Wish I could love again Me, I am almost old The songs play over and over in my head Lovers all around, as I drink my wine Another day Without the profoundness of love Glass to lips, I drink to a life that was not to be The waiter with eyes, asks another glass? Why not I say? It’s the anniversary Of just another day
