Marvelous was to realize that spring was back again
as I saw the dormouses waking up.
Marvelous was to know
your lust would return along with spring.
Marvelous was summer,
with its bugs laying down on flowers.
Marvelous was to see our hair
burning and changing color.
Marvelous was to watch you swimming,
getting deep down, and then coming up again.
Marvelous was to stay up all night and sleep all day.
Just like this was the world
Right before you arrived.
Marvelous was, in autumn, to fall on the leaves, just like leaves do.
Marvelous was to hear you singing
as you came downstairs
Marvelous was to watch you dancing,
Oh, how marvelous it was!
Just like this was the world
Right before you arrived.
Marvelous was the winter sky, and so were your teeth.
Marvelous were your cold hands, touching my body, looking for something.
Marvelous was when we were in my bed,
and your feet on my thighs,
just as if we were on a motorbike
and you were riding it.
Just like this was the world
Right before you arrived.
