Ek dink miskien net dalk sal ek van jou genees
Die oomblik as die wind gaan lê
Want hy waai so lank al om-en-by deur my
So asof hy kwaad is vir iets

Net te lank al
Waai hy deur my
So asof hy kwaad is vir iets…

Daar’s net soveel dae en soveel maande
Soveel verlang op Sondagaande
Hierdie hart wil lê kry
Hierdie tyd moet verby
Na soveel dae na soveel maande
Soveel verlang op Sondagaande
Is ek moeg baklei
Teen verdwaalde tyd wat Sondagaande kry

Miskien net dalk sal ek van jou genees
Die oomblik as die herfs laat gaan
Want die blare val so lank al
Oral en om my
Asof vas te hou aan ‘n eeu-oue draai

Net te lank al val hierdie herfsblaar
Asof vas te hou aan ‘n eeu-oue draai
Te lank al is ons verby
Te lank al mis ek jou by my

Daar’s net soveel dae en soveel maande
Soveel verlang op Sondagaande
Hierdie hart wil lê kry
Hierdie tyd moet verby

“Why love, if losing hurts so much? I have no answers anymore: only the life I have lived. Twice in that life I’ve been given the choice: as a boy and as a man. The boy chose safety, the man chooses suffering. The pain now is part of the happiness then. That’s the deal.”
Jack Lewis in Shadowlands
