i woke up so impelled today
my eyes were shut,
my mind was blown away as a voice in the clock said:
"it's monday don't be late"
i lingered on my bed till ten
i brushed my teeth, hair, tongue and then
as usual i had to go to work
your song was playing on the radio
missed you so much, i felt so lone and cold
i thought "i have to change the car brakes,
for they're so noise and becoming rather old"
and as the traffic lights turned red,
i didn't notice, didn't stop the car in time and then
the crash was loud and strong
but i still heard your song
i felt the blood in my forehead then i thought,
"oh my god, i'm dead!",
as someone else from the other car came yelling at me.
your song was playing from the skies
as i turned my head i said: "it's so good to be alive!"
you were back and you found me almost dead
was it god who drove your car to
collide in mine in a crowded street, half past ten a.m.?
we left our cars in a traffic jam,
we crossed the streets, walked hand in hand
and as i kissed you all the people stopped and sang
your song came through our ears,
oh, it's so good to have you back after all these years
