The best song I ever heard

from Ek en jy (is lank reeds verby) by Kabaal klankbaan

/

lyrics

The way way back is playing soon
We spent last night under the moon
You said goodnight; I held you tight

A song came on the radio
Which one, I don't know –
Something from the eighties:
The best song I ever heard

It was the best song I ever heard
Though I can't recall the words
But I remember the colour of your cheeks
And your soft giggling

The rise and fall of your chest
Your warm breath in my neck
In your face – in your space –
but you wanted me there

We had a late lunch reservation
We left none to take away
We had a warm embrace to remember
at least 'till next September

We said goodbye at the station
We took as long as we could
We talked for hours in five minutes:
The best song I never heard

It was the best song I never heard
The best song I never heard
It was the best song I never heard
It was the best song I never heard
