Alles Gute zum Geburtstag, Harry!
Es ist über fünf Jahre her, dass ich umgezogen bin, und ich könnte mir deswegen immer noch den Hals umdrehen, aber ändern lässt sich daran inzwischen herzlich wenig.
Ich möchte dir heute ein Lied schicken, einfach, um es loszuwerden, und weil ich momentan nicht mehr daran glaube, dass du die Briefe jemals erhalten wirst.
Ich habe es vor ungefähr vier Jahren geschrieben, als ich die Pause gemacht habe, und dir ein Jahr lang keine Briefe mehr geschickt habe.
Es hat mir dabei geholfen, alles zu verarbeiten, aber es erinnert mich täglich an dich, weil es seit diesem Tag in meiner Schublade liegt und darauf wartet, vom Staub befreit zu werden.
Ich hoffe, es gefällt dir, auch, wenn es so angepasst ist.
Ich weiß nicht, was an dem Tag mit mir los war, vielleicht wollte ich dich damit erreichen.

Down to Earth
Keep on falling when I know it hurts
Going faster than a million miles an hour
Trying to catch my breath some way, somehow
Down to Earth
It's like I'm frozen, but the world still turns
Stuck in motion, but the wheels keep spinning 'round
Moving in reverse with no way out

And now I'm one step closer to being
Two steps far from you
When everybody wants you
Everybody wants you

How many nights does it take to count the stars?
That's the time it would take to fix my heart
Oh, baby, I was there for you
All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah, yeah
How many nights have you wished someone would stay?
Lay awake only hoping they're okay
I never counted all of mine
If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity

Infinity, infinity, yeah
Infinity

Eyes can't shine
Unless there's something burning bright behind
Since you went away, there's nothing left in mine
I feel myself running out of time

And now I'm one step closer to being
Two steps far from you
When everybody wants you
Everybody wants you

How many nights does it take to count the stars?
That's the time it would take to fix my heart
Oh, baby, I was there for you
All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah, yeah
How many nights have you wished someone would stay?
Lay awake only hoping they're okay
I never counted all of mine
If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity

Infinity, infinity, yeah
Infinity
Infinity, infinity

How many nights does it take to count the stars?
That's the time it would take to fix my heart
Oh, baby, I was there for you
All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah, yeah
How many nights have you wished someone would stay?
Lay awake only hoping they're okay
I never counted all of mine
If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity

Infinity, infinity, yeah
Infinity
