1.I wanted you to hear my song…
2.I wanted to send my love…
3.But I wasn’t able to tell you how I felt
4.You don’t know anything
5.About this city I live in
6.Nor the reason I’m even here7.
8.If, back then, you’d been dyed by the color of this old brick city’s charms,
9.I wouldn’t have ever let you go!10.
11.Passing through the park, exposed to the sun’s winter rays,
12.Each day of my current life begins
13.But time has stopped for my heart;
14.A double-decker bus leaves me behind
15.I hear you say, “The constellations are most beautiful in December,” inviting me out on a drive16.
17.We always looked at the stars from your sun-roof
18.You would always sing as you took in the view19.
20.If you still happen to remember that song,
21.Please… look to the far-off sky and sing for me in harmony!22.
23.Passing through the park, exposed to the sun’s winter rays,
24.Each day of my current life begins
25.But time has stopped for my heart
26.A double-decker bus leaves me behind27.
28.I wanted you to hear my song…
29.I wanted to send my love…
30.But I wasn’t able to tell you how I felt
31.The northern wind kicks up the dead leaves, makes things even harder on me
32.But I’ll keep on living in this city
