A regular Tuesday, the most inconspicuous day, has passed As if it hadn't been here at all, it drifted and languidly sank into a Wednesday
I'll start the engine, there's a jam on the beltway
The journey is no fun, but the metro is no choice either
I'm driving home. I'm driving on and on with a blizzard around me
I called you in the afternoon just for the sake of it
-Hello? Hi!
-Hello? Hi!
I kept calling all day with only dial tones in answer
I'd dial the number and no answer again. Where are you, my friend?
Where, where are you, good friend?
Here comes melancholy and the avenue ahead is helplessly stuck
Chorus
You and I will never get old
If we can be kinder at times
Open the door, I'm on the threshold
On the threshold I am
As if we were together again - that was my dream last night
And I'm all songs, and this is not exactly a game
And then a woe isn't really a woe, and years are mountains and mountains are altitude and I want to be there
That was what you wanted, too, but something went wrong
and the pace stopped
Time is not constant, an hour isn't always the same
Please, don't let it decide everything for us
A few minutes won't bring back years
But we both can look back into them just like that
And it's to this window that I've hastened, may be for the last time
Chorus
You and I will never get old
If we can be kinder at times
Open the door, I'm on the threshold
On the threshold I am
Chorus
You and I will never get old
If we can be kinder at times
Open the door, I'm on the threshold
On the threshold I am
(as if we were together again)
A regular Tuesday.... the most inconspicuous day.....
