Snowflakes
Your breath matches
The snow melting
On our hands
While many words
Weigh heavy on my tongue
I can hear them
Turn to water
Under the street lamp
Where we are standing
For way way too long
Your breath matches
The snow melting
On our hands
Snowflakes fly aimlessly
And without fear
Dancing like moths
In the starless winter night
Their silent air ballet
Is for you my dear
Mocking the moment
The darkness and the light
Snowflakes landing softly
On my eye lids
I feel them on my face
And on my eyes
Just like last Sunday morning
Your fingertips
I hear the crunching sound
Of your feet on ice

I don't know what to make of her
She likes to take pictures
Of butterflies in black n white
She writes a dozen poems
In the sand by low tide
I don't know what to make of her
She read a lot of books
But never the last 10 pages
She hates finished stories
And avoids them where she can
She likes cats more than birds
And had uncounted love affairs
She did cocaine and other drugs
At least from what I heard
She always left one shoestring open
And when I asked her she shrugged
Hey what should I do?
If I open both I fall
She cut and died her hair
Even though we didn’t brake up
One night she said swear
We never use the word with the L

You are the one that always looks a little bit too long
On our first day you missed your step
I did mine and you did not
And I wondered I couldn't believe it
You are the one that always looks a little bit too long
You know how that is when you are like that
When you look that way you tilt your head
Don't you feel it in your heart
You are the one that always looks a little bit too long
You should see your eyes a hidden craving
You're fighting your feeling to feel what is right
Before it starts it is the end
You are the one that always looks a little bit too long
Then just by chance we meet again
And your eyes don't let me go
Just like way back when
You are the one that always looks a little bit too long

Du bist die Frau die mich immer die Spur länger anschaut
Am 1. Tag
Fehlte dein Schritt
Auf meinen Schritt
Tatest du nichts
Ich wunderte mich
Und glaubte es kaum
Weißt du wie das ist
Wenn du so bist
Wenn du so guckst
Wenn du so schaust
Hast du eigentlich auch
Dieses Gefühl in deinem Bauch?
Du solltest deine Augen sehen
Wie sie vergehen
Wie du dich wehrst
Gegen das was du begehrst
Bevor es anfängt
War es schon aus
Dann eher aus versehen
Ein Wiedersehen
Und deine Augen
Lassen mich nicht los
Ganz so wie früher
Ganz so genau
Weißt du wie das ist
Wenn du so bist
Wenn du so guckst
Wenn du so schaust
Hast du eigentlich auch
Dieses Gefühl in deinem Bauch?
