Today I passed you by / Without a sound / Though it seems I laid my head / Beside you to sleep last night / It must have been a dream serene / Your hand in mine / But the rays of daybreak soon / Illumined a strange new scene / Sad ways we follow down / With every step we're moving more apart / As if we'd known it for sure / Right from the start / The rules are so undefined / In this game with no name / We set our aims and make our moves / So deaf, mute and endlessly blind / I'll try not to think of you / No single thought / Anyway, in this dim-lit place of mine / There's barely enough room for two / Sad ways we follow down / Only empty words echo in my mind / It seems that the colors fade / With the memories we leave behind / Sad ways we follow down / With every step we're moving more apart / Passing like strangers in the mist / Without a sound / What were your reasons for / Not calling me, not sending me a word / Ignoring my screaming eyes / And leaving the signs unseen and unheard / What were my reasons for / Not calling you, not dropping you a line / If forever means such a short time / Won't everything else be but a lie / Sad ways we follow down / Those empty words are needless to repeat / Can't you see our feelings turn to gray / And die away like the flowers at your feet? / Sad ways we follow down / And so I'm passing you - a gray figure in the crowd / With a verse I'm singing you softly…
