That day when you decide that life was all for nothing <br />When the paint has peeled off oils on your walls <br />When your friends have left and won’t be returning <br />Maybe that day you’ll dropp by after all <br /> <br />When your only son forgets what name to call you <br />When your lover longs for comfort of his wife <br />When you want to cry but have no tears for it <br />Maybe at least that day you’ll come back into my life <br /> <br />I waited out for so long <br />But I know how to wait <br />And it may sound odd but I remember all <br />That you forgot to say <br /> <br />When your father drives you off his doorstep <br />When your memoirs have dropped in price <br />When you cry out “Help” but no one is responding <br />Maybe on that day you'll grace my sight <br /> <br />When your creditors come asking for their money <br />When you see a foe is riding on your steed <br />When you are dressed in rags instead of velvet <br />Maybe on that day you’ll come to visit me <br /> <br />I am no judge <br />There is no need to be sweet <br />Just need to tell me all <br />And it’s strange <br />But I’ve forgotten more <br />Then you will ever know <br /> <br />When the waters have receded in your river <br />When your pages die on someone else’s field <br />And when even sun appears to be dimming <br />Maybe on that day you’ll come to me <br /> <br />When your ears get filled with sounds of sirens <br />When in vain you start to dream about peace <br />When you need someone to whom there is no need to speak <br />Maybe on that day you will return to me<br /><br />Masha Danevasha<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/that-day-translation-of-lyrics-by-zoopark/
