The past tenderness fades like mist away
The infatuation burns out only ruins stay
In the long night I talk to memories alone
Waiting for dawn to break the gloomy tone
Thoughts like vines grow wild hard to uproot
Promises fade and sink into the blue loot
My heart's a cocoon trapped by the old sill
Why can't I let this obsession be still
Whose waiting sways in the dancing wind
Unspoken love's soaked in the pouring rain
Partings and meetings drown all our hopes again
Tears turn to poems full of bitter pain
Whose expectations are blurred by time's hand
Vows wither on the desolate platform's land
How many cycles of spring and fall must pass
To break free from this fate's long embrace at last
Thoughts like vines grow wild hard to uproot
Promises fade and sink into the blue loot
My heart's a cocoon trapped by the old sill
Why can't I let this obsession be still
Whose waiting sways in the dancing wind
Unspoken love's soaked in the pouring rain
Partings and meetings drown all our hopes again
Tears turn to poems full of bitter pain
Whose expectations are blurred by time's hand
Vows wither on the desolate platform's land
How many cycles of spring and fall must pass
To break free from this fate's long embrace at last
Whose waiting sways in the dancing wind
Unspoken love's soaked in the pouring rain
Partings and meetings drown all our hopes again
Tears turn to poems full of bitter pain
Whose expectations are blurred by time's hand
Vows wither on the desolate platform's land
How many cycles of spring and fall must pass
To break free from this fate's long embrace at last
