Bilingual
A little talk could hold me for a little while
Another brush of whiskers and that distant smile
So little light remaining and the shadows won't contain me
The book of night is closing for the child
I knew you were a strange girl or I thought you were
You mustered all the wonder from a room of hurt
We knew the world of summer like a sister, like a brother
And the melodies were sweeter left unheard
We fell down a hole
ย
Don't you remember?
We fell so far below
ย
And never found the center
Another word or two
And all the summer new
ย
In the song of the afternoon
Afternoon

You never play September in a winter game
The heart will not remember what it will not name
The caterpillar gazes on a world of older faces
But the butterflies go floating all the same
We fell down a hole
Won't you remember?
We fell so far below
We never found the center
And who knew what to do
With all I felt for you
In the song of the afternoon
