The Needle and the Thread

I'm sorry, I reappeared

After we've declared, this horse is dead

I don't want to interfere

With the gentle art of the needle and the thread

Once, I knew a tune

But now, it's gone astray

By the time, you'll hear this song

We'll both be old and gray

If I could rewind this instant

And undo the thing, that made you cry

Would you promise to come back?

To the exact same spot

Under the same piece of sky

Once, I knew your lips

But now, the taste has gone astray

And by the time you'll hear this song

We'll both be old and gray

It's too late to interfere

All the things we've said

All letters left unread

It's best to just disappear

To just let you go

To the needle and the thread

Once, I knew a tune

But now, its gone astray

By the time, you'll hear this song

We'll both be old and gray
