On grass she laughs
The wounded cat
Her tired eyes
She works so hard
Who would have thought
The year will pass
“Play for me “
Silvia asks

How come - she asks
This time, that time
That time that passed
Shows me the scars
How come - she asks
On nails she lies
And smiles

How come - she asks
Piece of your heart
You cannot love
You are so starved
And then you meet
Somebody hollow

You place in her
A piece of you
(Power attracts)
At ease, don’t act
So Silvia Sez
I follow

Don’t get too near
(Her perfect legs)
You might get burned
Behold, beware
So Silvia Sez
But then I dare

I only come
She says to me
For one thing done
Maybe last time
Maybe goodbye
Forget all that
Take me to bed
So Silvia Sez
