He loved music and the stars,
That burn so brightly in the distant skies.
He liked sad poems,
Those that speak quietly of the eternal.

He would listen to the soft sound of the rain,
Standing by the wet window for hours on end.
He would breathe in eternity, the scent of damp earth,
Catching leaves in the yellow leaf fall.

And I loved his eyes madly,
Where the stars and sadness were reflected.
And I loved his eyes madly,
Without a doubt, I liked everything about him, looking into the distance.

He so loved the frost, and the rain, and the nights,
The cold wind, the whisper of darkness.
At times it seemed he didn't love, however,
Either the light of day, or the noisy bustle.

At times it seemed he was very lonely,
At times it seemed he loved nothing.
He withdrew into a world of gloomy roadsides,
But I couldn't help but notice him.

And I loved his eyes madly,
Where the stars and sadness were reflected.
And I loved his eyes madly,
Without a doubt, I liked everything about him, looking into the distance.

And let him live in his misty world,
Among poems, rain and silence.
I found in his cold lyre
The warmth of an unexpected spring.

I saw light where others saw shadows,
I accepted him as he was.
And I don't need any other opinions,
There was a mystery in him, a good message.

For I loved his eyes madly,
Where the stars and sadness were reflected.
And I loved his eyes madly,
Without a doubt, I liked everything about him, looking into the distance.
