before you were born


before you were born
life was still complicated
you just don't remember
because you weren't here yet
everything was possible
nothing was yet validated
so much would happen
that you would forget

before you were born
your mom met your dad
they fell in love
while the spring was in bloom
they built themselves a future
that's all that they had
and then sooner, not later,
birth came and brought you

          time moves slow but fast
          nothing ever seems to last

before you were born
you couldn't even read
you depended on your parents
for nearly everything
and if you were lucky
they gave you what you needed
there was so much joy and pain
that this new life would bring

          time moves fast but slow
          but it's the only time you know

before you were born
you could not be aware
of the love and the glory
life laid ahead for you
it's all very simple
you don't have to be scared
you're all full of instinct
you know what to do
