The Needle and the Thread Songtext
von Rona Kenan

I′m sorry, I reappeared
After we've declared, this horse is dead
I don′t want to interfere
With the gentle art of the needle and the thread

Once, I knew a tune
But now, it's gone astray
By the time, you'll hear this song
We′ll both be old and gray

If I could rewind this instant
And undo the thing, that made you cry
Would you promise to come back?
To the exact same spot
Under the same piece of sky


Once, I knew your lips
But now, the taste has gone astray
And by the time you′ll hear this song
We'll both be old and gray

It′s too late to interfere
All the things we've said
All letters left unread
It′s best to just disappear
To just let you go
To the needle and the thread

Once, I knew a tune
But now, its gone astray
By the time, you'll hear this song
We′ll both be old and gray
