lyrics

one day i returned to the place where we last saw each other. it had changed so much that only the street-sign told me where i was. and where the house she lived in once stood a brand-new supermarket stands. as for the matter that made up me, not one particle of it remained. the eyes that saw, the ears that heard, the flesh that touched were otherwhere and the cells that replace them had come from quite different pasts. despite all this, nothing that once was had altered. i had but to close my eyes to see her, as sharp and clear as when alive. as for voice and touch, tied to an immaterial chain of memory she had not let go. that i should disappear like smoke into the ceiling. that all the flowers she pressed there had no meaning.
