Tekst en muziek: Huib Schreurs

I can see she walks in front of me
I wished that I could speak, but I can only whisper wishes
And I wonder if she, if she sees me
I wished that I could speak, but I can only whisper wishes
That I could tell something to amuse her
And that it would be as it could

It’s that she moves so easy between everything I see
I wished that I could speak, but I can only whisper wishes
Oh could she dedicate one thought to me
I wished that I could speak, but I can only whisper wishes
That it will not be the same as it used to
But that it will be as it could

It’s the way she throws her face in the air
I wished that I could speak, but I can only whisper wishes
Of me in her memory and I never was there
I wished that I could speak, but I can only whisper wishes
That it will not be the same as it used to
But that it will be as it could

Huib Schreurs, 1989
