The tender image of happiness

Roland was returning from his college
And slept late those mornings.
I was watching the snow falling
Finishing my chocolate.
I saw Lise at the window
In the back-light, and in a corner
Dad was reading a letter again
Holding Mom by the hand.
 
{Chorus:}
So I took for myself
The tender image in my heart,
And from today to shroud
It will be these of happiness.
 
I was waiting for her music theory time
Looking from the entrance
Lise's steps in the snow
Which drew like a path.
Roland to finish his dream
Pretended to be asleep,
While Mom, to get him up,
Was going to kiss him in bed.
 
{Chorus:}
 
Time to write a few pages,
A few years have gone
On the decor and faces,
And then Mom left us.
Lise comes to dine some nights
And Roland occasionally comes by.
Dad calls me and comes to see me
If he's too alone at home.
 
So I kept for myself
The tender image of happiness,
And from today to shroud,
It will tear my heart out.
