Lyrics and translation
Original
My breath gets caught across the window.
The fall was brief, the trees got weak, we're all so used to letting go now.
But I'll admit I've been ungrateful, 'cause they've been summarizing things.
You can't just summarize these things.
The snow falls, have you moved on? Why can't we stay?
Why can't we stay long? When the leaves die, did the trees cry?
Why can't we stay here?
I know my way around this place, you see.
I've smiled here in the winter and I've cried here in the spring.
There's nothing in this world that doesn't someday have to leave.
I've lost track of my inner child, I won't lose inner peace.
The seasons fold and now it's April.
A touch of heat and I just sleep, and now I'm scared to be too stable.
But life speeds up each time the bell tolls.
The flowers bloom, it should be you that sees the beauty reawaken.
The trees grow, now we're so tall.
Why can't we stay? Why can't we stay long?
When the bird cries, can it still fly?
Why can't we stay?
I know my way around this place, you see.
I've smiled here in the winter and I've cried here in the spring.
There's nothing in this world that doesn't someday have to leave.
I've lost track of my inner child, I won't lose inner peace.
So if you go, my darling, I'll keep a piece with me.
And I saw you in the snow.
The traumas kept me in in the cold.
I wonder if the drummer knows, that while he plays, the world gets old.
I swear I see you in the trees.
I hear it rains when summer breathes.
I still love who I thought you'd be.
Oh, there's never been much foliage in grief.
I'm calling out now, I'm calling out now, I'm calling out, my love.
