I remember the days of summer We were so close together You were humming the songs of silence Sweetly plucking the harp of wind

Every moment was sacred and mystic We were near to the shore of eternity The days are gone, and will never come back

You were a half of me, long time ago

Life can never be perfect without you But I’m still on my way to the future For I remember your sweet song in my mind

To the lost horizon, I’m calling your name Again and again

Though the night is so dark A new dawn is so close to me Sun will come and shine on all seeds of hope Bud and bloom

I remember the days of winter You were sitting beside me All alone in the shuttered places We were waiting for thawing day

Every moment was sacred and mystic We were hoping the night was eternal The days are gone, and so far away I’m still singing your sweet song for long Long windy nights
