The Nostalgia Of Time

Remember a time? Not too long ago Darling, we were not old We were little and charming We were cute and innocent We were bathing in the pond Our blood was young and happy Everything was perfect And we lived in peace Things are not the same anymore We are surrounded by problems Presently, right now We dream like two snakes We quarrel like spoiled children It's sad, it's funny, and it's strange We behave like two elephants We behave like two opponents We live under the sun of a nasty weather Forget about the ravages of the hurricane Oh! Scars last a long and sorry time Nevertheless, we must go forward It's good to dream in the wind Time can dry the bad bloods And erase the bitterness of yesteryear Remember the good old days?
