Today was the day, oh such a day that left a big mark on me All the love in my heart and the luck In my blood just keep me off my sleep An ordinary day just like all the days, but today I could see Now I don't dare to close my eyes again and fall back into this dream The clock hand hits the numbers and the minutes passing by My breath is floating with my thoughts, surfing on a wave of time It all keeps moving, moving on, even this never ending night I'm a collector of moments, just like the moment inside a rhyme Outside the window there's street lights and a tree A hedge hock and straying cats give them company Church bell rings, a cricket sings, sounds good to me Maybe I go out and take a walk, whistling this melody The world it sleeping, there are not many left who are still awake God knows what they might be waiting For, now there's no more big deal to make But the bakery is baking for the coffee Shops and the air tastes like bread and cake Sugar and salt don't let us grow old But at least we have a short good taste My feet are carrying me to the old concert hall It's been closed for many years, But you still can hear the echoes on the wall Many people went there once, later it was only a few And today most artist are just playing for me and for you I think I got home now before the break of day Well I love birds singing but not before eight And I think I must be tired enough to fall into sleep Leave my thoughts in these streets, My time in my rhyme, this song with its melody
