[Verse 1]
It's the day the summer came
The day we put away our failures
As one sometimes throws away broken furniture
We left our love on a neighborhood sidewalk
Then without a cry, we laughed
As if to cover the sound of our sobs
Shyly, we said "let's stay friends", as if it were beautiful
[Chorus]
Yet
It's not as pretty as a beginning, a bouquet of roses, a poem read
It's not as pretty as a word of love you give without expecting anything in return
It's not as pretty as a beginning, a bouquet of roses, a poem read
It's less pretty than a word of love you give without expecting anything in return
[Verse 2]
This is the day we left the dream before it was over
As if we were afraid it wouldn't end well
This is the day when, deep down, I hoped our "farewell" would say "see you tomorrow"
Like a stupid agreement, we promised each other that we'd call again, that we'd say "good night" to each other
And that despite the lonely mornings, the cold awakenings, we'd regret nothing
[Chorus]
Yet
It's not as pretty as a beginning, as a bouquet of roses, as a poem read
It's not as pretty as a word of love you give without expecting anything in return
It's not as pretty as a beginning, a bouquet of roses, a poem read
It's not as pretty as a love note you give without expecting anything in return
