On a clouded day in the month of May, I walk over to your house
The white front and huge pillars can’t cast a shadow over you, and I move closer than allowed
Your dark brown eyes and yellow jumper like the sun, makes me think I should look away
But all I want is to stare longer at your face, for this feeling won’t go astray
Your nervous smile makes me wonder, where your obnoxious confidence fades
From who you were there and who you are now as soon as I say your name
My Marianne, my silent lamb, how I’m thinking of you so
My head can be so complicated and my feelings, I cannot show
And after all, we are just normal people, and I don’t think I’m better than the rest
The fact that you do love me though, it makes me feel so blessed.
A few years gone and then I see your light like a blinding supernova
Im standing in the courtyard here pretending not to know you
And in a sudden you tell them you know me from a short while ago
Your new love and friends a dozen, all following you in tow
They see you now, much more than before and I’m not amazed you’re loved
For I love you still and the love I had, could never be undone
The understanding that we shared that time can never be denied
the love we created and time that we spent only made me feel more alive
So thank you for seeing me, just as I want to see you
Let’s go spend this time together,
I want to be with you, my mind and soul
And run in every endeavour.
