Gloomy Sunday, Sunday is trouble.
I was missing you. I wait for you.
Whenever you go, my soul leaves with you.
I can’t live when I am so far away from you.
I threw my things away.
I kissed my daughter good-bye.
But I kept the little house where you’ve made love to me.
I long for you.
Come back and take me.
Let’s fall down together and never get up.
I lose myself every time you collapse in me.
If you hold me up, I’ll forever hold on to you.
Take me away, like you did last time you were with me.
You pulled me up.
Some say you pushed me down, but no -
I was down before you were ever near me.
I loved the way you padded across to me.
Your light, fiery foot steps.
Take a step with me as if it was the first in your life.
Sing me to sleep and be there when I wake up.
Pancakes with blueberries on top.
Let’s pour a drink and toast.
As I shook off my haze you let me fly.
Up high.
Don’t make me wait around, I am tired.
I want you to toss out all the things with that stench.
Let’s be unpredictable and start a-fresh.
I want to live with you behind me,
and die with you on me.
I melt.
You press into me,
I can only fade into you.
I am you.
And I want you to be me.
If I could be ether floating around you,
for all the eternity.
If I could be water washing down your inside and out.
You couldn’t leave me because I am you.
If you let out everything, you would love me
the same way I love you.
Tears rolling down my back,
and your sweet shoulder.
Climb on top of me.
Crush my chest and push the breath out of me.
Trap me.
Return me the favour.
