Reminisce
(G.L. Wijnalda)
Hey little girl,
why don't you hold on
Why don't you just grab a coat and follow
Hey little girl, just try to remember
Explore the inside, our sleazy and hollow
It is not one
lonely thought
It's a floodwave, an avalanche
A forgotten wish that somehow survived
Why don't you hold on - reminisce
Hey little girl,
why don't you get out
Why don't you just leave my head and vanish
Hey little girl, just try to forget it - ignore it
'Cause forgetting
will open a way for you
To grow up, open up, throw off all your elvish
It can block
all your feelings
It's a floodwave, an avalanche
A forgotten wish that somehow survived
Why don't you hold on - reminisce
If you are grown
up and found our wish somehow
You'll forget the disappointments
And then it doesn't matter if you still reminisce
