I don't quite remember that Pretty projection or dubious construction. The dream that kissed with tangible lips I cannot elicit A lazy shape of limbs Sprawled across threadbare blankets. Warm hearts and cold feet. Bookshops piled to the rafters; Places of whispered exchanges And smiling, arm through arm. I can't conjure up The taste and stain of cheap red wine, A tongue that laughed and sung To Louis Armstrong, on the radio. In cold Septembers And aching Decembers, Left to my reckless imagination... I wish that I couldn’t remember.

I don't quite remember that Pretty projection or dubious construction. The dream that kissed with tangible lips I cannot elicit A lazy shape of limbs Sprawled across threadbare blankets. Warm hearts and cold feet. Bookshops piled to the rafters; Places of whispered exchanges And smiling, arm through arm. I can't conjure up The taste and stain of cheap red wine, A tongue that laughed and sung To Louis Armstrong, on the radio. In cold Septembers And aching Decembers, Left to my reckless imagination...
