The song of lost love

Remember? Violets were blooming
with our words
"We'll never, ever, ever split up".
 
I would like to tell you now the same things
but how quickly, love,
do roses fade, likewise for us
 
the love that pulls your hair out
is lost by now,
nothing is left but some listless caress
and a little tenderness.
 
And when you find in your hands
those flowers faded in the sun
of a now far away April,
you'll regret them
 
but it will be the first one you'll meet in the street
that you'll cover in gold for a kiss never given,
for a new love.
 
And it will be the first one you'll meet in the street
that you'll cover in gold for a kiss never given,
for a new love.
