SONG FOR KIM

I got lost when we met,
was totally confused.
I was walking like a dead,
does hell have any news?

Back then my past was buried,
nothing promised to begin.
If I have something to tell you
this is the song for Kim

We have experienced orphanhood
that we’re trying to forget.
Everything is understood
And all the words are said.

I kept a balance in between,
something good and bad.
Since the day I met Kim
I’ve got a reason to regret

Rock me la-la,
you rock me la-la,
you rock me sha-la-la

Sister, give me a plate of rice
and teach me how to love.
There’s something in your eyes,
you know the world is tough

Talking of love, what does it mean
when napalm’s dropping down?
I forgot to ask you Kim
when you were around

Chorus

Brother, tell me why you were killed
in the jungle woods?
And those guys how do they feel
in their quiet neighborhoods?

I thought this world fell apart,
and I lost my dream.
But it all ended on the day
the day when I met Kim

Chorus:

Is she a messenger of love
in this cruel world?
B52 turns into a dove
when you look at this girl.

The other day, when I was scared
like the one in Munch’s “The Scream”
she spreads her wings, she touches down
she says my name is Kim
