Past midnight Cruising the backroads In yer monte carlo A cigarette on my lips A tear on my cheek There comes a fog Then a rain Is it true That I can only see the shadow of you? Cherry blossom under the Street light The lilacs are not ready to bloom It is all so beautiful And it is all gone too soon I still dream of you And when I awake It still feels as though You'll be lying Right next to me But the harsh reality sets in. So I brace myself for the monotony of another day of my true love being very far away
