A street lamb dies
Another night is over
And soon it will be morning
A street lamp dies
Another night is over
And soon it will be morning
Archie
It's so easy to leave me.
Touch me
It's so easy to leave me.
Daylight, see that you want a sun flow
And the rose that is mating
Roses wither away
Like the sun flow I yearn to turn my face to the dawn
I am waiting for the day.
Daylight, see the dew on the sunflower
And a rose that is fading
Roses wither away
Like the sunflower I yearn to turn my face to the dawn
I am waiting for the day.
Daylight, see the Jew on the sofa
Daylight, see the dew on the sunflower
Every street lamp seems to beat
A fatal lipstick warning.
Every street lamp seems to beat
A fatalistic warning.
If you touch me, I'll know what happiness is
Touch me all over again.
If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is
Look, a new day has begun.
If you touch me, then you will know what happiness is.
I remember the time, I knew what happiness was.
In the lamplight, the wizard leaves, correct, at my feet.
In the lamplight, the withered leaves collect at my feet.
