if
the dream i had last night
is to become true
maybe i shall
be dead
soon
there's nothing
to be sad about
today i'll
go alone
to an amusement park i know
and look at
the gondolas
go by

and
if i talk to you
on a trunk call
i'm sure
just that would be
enough to make me weep
it's not that
i'm sad
since the day we met
until today
i've been
very happy

people are born
then they
fall in love
with someone and then
one day they die
it's completely meaningless
just like a short film
i once saw
in an aeroplane

if
the dream i had last night
is to have
a sequel
i don't want to see
you weep
i can't forget
your laughing face
on the photo
i've kept
since that day

people are born
then they
love someone
and in the end
they die
everything over and over again
just like
the short film i saw
in an aeroplane

if
the dream i saw last night
is to become true
and
if there is to be a sequel
to this dream

people are born
then they
fall in love with someone
and then
one day they die
it's not that bad
it's just like
this short film i once saw
in an aeroplane
