Hello my dear,
oh it's been so long.
Since that walk at the end of last summer.
And the old abandoned schoolgrounds held so many secrets,
if not remnants of a far and vivacious past.
So what do these stone walls tell us
about the lifespan of our affections?
Or the way in which we treat ourselves tonight?
And I've taken to walking alone at night,
past Trinity Crescent and up to the old war memorial.
And are you out there, somewhere between those tombs?
Or am I haunting myself again?
I'd choose the latter over you any day.
Now this is coming to an ending,
I hope you hear sincerity.
Because I spend more time than I care to admit
thinking about this.

'K word wakker elke dag
met in mijn hoofd een dwaze vraag.
Over de eerlijkheid van ons bestaan.
En hoe het nu verder moet.
En ik denk nog veel aan jou.
Als is het maar pro forma.
Want jij bent er niet meer
en dat doodt mij keer op keer.
'K ga slapen elke nacht
met een oog open houd ik de wacht.
Maar het kon mij niet wapenen
tegen dit verlies.
En ik denk nog veel aan jou.
Als is het maar pro forma.
Want jij bent er niet meer
en dat doodt mij keer op keer.
Oh, wacht toch niet op mij. (Wacht toch niet op mij.)
Want niemand wacht op jou.
Oh, je bent zeker niet vergeten.
Maar wij moeten hier eerst nog even zweten.
En ik denk nog veel aan jou.
Als is het maar pro forma.
Want jij bent er niet meer
en dat doodt mij keer op keer.
En ik denk nog veel aan jou.
Als is het maar pro forma.

It was last night when we spoke,
of all those vicious things life's been known to do.
And now we still taste the cynicism
and the bitterness of affection grown cold.
Humour me
with your presence.
Make feel like there is something out there.
This could've been it.
Our great escape.
If it weren't for this poison in my head.
Tell me everything
that keeps you up at night.
Tell me what you need me (to be),
so I'll know exactly how to disappoint.
Humour me
with your presence.
Make feel like there is something out there.
This could've been it.
Our great escape.
If it weren't for this poison in my head.
I'm sorry.
I tried.
Walk out.
Repeat.
