I Still Remember

I, I still remember

How you looked that afternoon

There was only you

You said: It's just like a full Moon

Blood beats faster in our veins

We left our trousers by the canal

And our fingers, they almost touched

You should have asked me for it

I would have been brave

You should have asked me for it

How could I say no?

And our love could have soared

Over playgrounds and rooftops

Every park bench screams your name

I kept your tie

I'd have gone wherever you wanted

(I still remember)

And on that teachers' training day

We wrote our names on every train

Laughed at the people off to work

So monochrome and so lukewarm

And I can see our days are becoming night

I could feel your heartbeat across the grass

We should have run, I would go with you anywhere

I should have kissed you by the water

You should have asked me for it

I would have been brave

You should have asked me for it

How could I say no?

And our love could have soared

Over playgrounds and rooftops

Every park bench screams your name

I kept your tie

I'd have let you if you asked me

I still remember
