Translation
Bilingual
There sits a man
He chats with old photographs
Waiting for them to talk back
He yearns to know what they'd say
Are they really as happy as their smile portrays
Well, maybe it's true
'Cause they don't know as much as me and you do
Eroding our years away
Askin' the man in the frame
Well, maybe I've gone insane
But he's tellin' 'bout that day
Sayin'
"How come I could hardly see
The water flowin' down the stream
But the path that led me to the creek's
Cemented in my memory
We were dancin' under willow trees
Singin', 'I need to get there to feel warm'
Well, I learnt, son, I learnt, son
'Once you feel the heat, you'll miss the cold'"
Well, I'm a plant in every photo
Yet I never synthesize with the daily light
So I keep beggin' the man for me answers
He says, "Boy, you've had your chances"
You'll be fiiiine
While feeding me those saaaaame liiiines
Sayin'
"How come I could hardly see
The water flowin' down the stream
But the path that led me to the creek's
Cemented in my memory
We were dancin' under willow trees
Singin', 'I need to get there to feel warm'
Well, I learnt, son, I learnt, son
'Once you feel the heat, you'll miss the cold'"
"When you wish through the winter
You will quickly come to find
You were livin' in the picture
Your spring self will idolize
Son, don't be scared of the cold air"
Said the film as he faded goodbye
"Oh, the path you pave
You pave to the picture
Is what you must romanticize"
Said, "Once you feel the heat, you'll miss the cold"
