City Streets
Day 1 started out badly
Day 2 left me perplexed
I would have stopped at Day 3 gladly
but Day 4 came next
and as the days turn into weeks
and as the weeks turn into months
you start to turn into yourself
you only get to do it once
you close your eyes
you realize--
our days are numbered
our nights are, too
there were so many I could have spent with you
we got no credit for the full amount
our days were numbered
but they didn't count
Day 5 felt like it took ages
it seemed that Day 6 would never arrive
but when I looked up from turn
Day 2 left me perplexed
I would have stopped at Day 3 gladly
but Day 4 came next
and as the days turn into weeks
and as the weeks turn into months
you start to turn into yourself
you only get to do it once
you close your eyes
you realize--
our days are numbered
our nights are, too
there were so many I could have spent with you
we got no credit for the full amount
our days were numbered
but they didn't count
Day 5 felt like it took ages
it seemed that Day 6 would never arrive
but when I looked up from turn
Louise
Wie gaat er nou nog voor me zorgen
Als jij er niet meer bent, Louise
Hoe moet het met mij verder morgen
Als ik nu ook nog jou verlies
Kijk me aan, ik sta te grienen
Ik kan nergens meer voor dienen
Het is heet maar ik bevries
Jij zegt ik wil opnieuw beginnen
Oke, maar waarom niet met mij
We kunnen toch wel wat verzinnen
't Is toch niet allemaal voorbij
Kijk me aan, ik sta te huilen
Open je armen, ik wil schuilen
Ik heb je nodig, hier, Louise
M'n lieve Louise, oh Louise ...
En hoe kan ik praten tegen muren
Waar moet ik met mezelf naartoe
Hoelang moet ik dit nog verduren
Wanneer ben jij die man weer moe
Kijk me aan, ik lig te janken
Clouseau ligt languit op de planken
Kom terug s'il te plait, alsjeblieft, oh please
M'n lieve Louise, oh Louise ...
