*** Lennert, ***
At Christmas you said to me:
"You'll get a present..."
At New-year you said to me:
"You'll get your present... Soon..."
I was fuckin' curious...
I couldn't wait...
But you didn't say a thing!
On January the firth
You broke up with me
I thought by myself:
"And my present?"
But I didn't ask...
I kept waiting on that present...
It didn't come!
I didn't dare to ask you about
That present, I didn't wanna make you angry
But then, on January the sixteenth
Your mother told me, you were dead!
You contemplated suicide
Together with my best friend.
I was really sad, I cried days and nights.
And sometimes I thought again:
"Hey, you've forgotten my present, dude"
But what did I have to do?
Today your mother came to me
She said to me:
"Lennert had a present for you..."
I didn't know what to say...
I said: "He told me... But he never gave it."
"I know...", she said, "that's why I'm here!
He asked me in a letter, to give you your present."
I thought that is was a dream...
That it wasn't real! It was impossible!
Your mother took me with her, Lennert,
I didn't know where we were going...
I had no fucking idea!
But then, we arrived to a jeweler...
I didn't understand!
She said that I had to come with her...
She told me you wanted to buy me a
Ring, 'cause you knew I hadn't go one...
I made my choice... She paid him...
Now, I'm wearing your ring...
I just want to thank you...
You're such a wonderful guy...
I don't say: you WERE...
Because I know, you're still alive
In the hearts op people who
Loved you, and you know?
They still love you, Lenn!
One of them is me...
Thanks for the present!
I will love the ring, like I loved you
And like I'm still loving you...
