please tell me

why do birds sing when you're near me?

sing when you're close to me?

they say that I'm a fool

for loving you deeply

loving you secretly



but I crash in my mind

whenever you are near

getting deaf, dumb and blind

just drowning in despair

I am lost in your flame

it's burning like a sun

and I call out your name

the moment you are gone



please tell me

why can't I breathe when you're near me?

breathe when you're close to me?

I know you know I'm lost

in loving you deeply

loving you secretly

secretly



but I crash in my mind

whenever you are near

getting deaf, dumb and blind

just drowning in despair

I am lost in your flame

it's burning like a sun

and I call out your name

the moment you are gone



tomorrow

(say it all the day after tomorrow)

I'll tell it all tomorrow

(say it all the day after tomorrow)

or the day after tomorrow

(say it all the day after today)

I'm sure I'll tell you then



well I crash in my mind

whenever you are near

(say it all today)

getting deaf, dumb and blind

just drowning in despair

(say it all today)

I am lost in your flame

it's burning like a sun

(say it all today)

and I call out your name

the moment you are gone



the moment you are gone
