The day after tomorrow

Please tell me
why do birds sing when you're near me?
sing when you're close to me?
they say that I'm a fool
for loving you deeply
loving you secretly

but I crash in my mind
whenever you are near
getting deaf, dumb and blind
just drowning in despair
I am lost in your flame
it's burning like a sun
and I call out your name
the moment you are gone

please tell me
why can't I breathe when you're near me?
breathe when you're close to me?
I know you know I'm lost
in loving you deeply
loving you secretly
secretly

but I crash in my mind
whenever you are near
getting deaf, dumb and blind
just drowning in despair
I am lost in your flame
it's burning like a sun
and I call out your name
the moment you are gone

tomorrow
(say it all the day after tomorrow)
I'll tell it all tomorrow
(say it all the day after tomorrow)
or the day after tomorrow
(say it all the day after today)
I'm sure I'll tell you then

well I crash in my mind
whenever you are near
(say it all today)
getting deaf, dumb and blind
just drowning in despair
(say it all today)
I am lost in your flame
it's burning like a sun
(say it all today)
and I call out your name
the moment you are gone

the moment you are gone
