i sit now thinking....
about you, dearest Dad
how long it has been, this sad
i am looking to outside's view
how everything seems so new
i am looking through this window
how time has fled so fast and full of sorrow
i still see clearly that i am enjoying the mocca
in that cosy Ragusa ice saloon in Jakarta
we two only on my favourite spot
all delicious things are far from hot
it was a delicate coldness, that mocca
i only want to say i love you very much
and the most happiest Happy Birthday Pappa!
but now you aren't here anymore, not today nor tomorrow
i must admit that that day i was in deepest sorrow
i am looking through this window
the people moving so very slow
like a film in the cinema in slow motion
your coffin passing by left me in greatest emotion
how i wished to go along with you
now i only whisper these words i love you so true
and happiest Happy Birthday to You
soft, tenderly and with a most loving thought
i know that you´ll come here today
melancholic emotions, i am in tears,
and more i have brought
for you Today especially for you my Daddy Dearest
i know Today you´ll be here as the nearest
so i am whispering in your ears
as you know me of course with more tears
the most happiest Happy BirthDay Pappa!
and Many Cosy Returns in Jakarta
