“And love is just a piece of time
in the world
in the world.
And I couldn't help but fall in love again.”

Context: I somehow see what's beautiful
In things that are ephemeral
I'm my only friend of mine
And love is just a piece of time
in the world
in the world.
And I couldn't help but fall in love again.
