Trees In the Wind

I'll light up the tree, call up the guests
But no one will come
I'll set the table and sit in the corner
The cake in front of me

Night will be beautiful and bright
Zero degrees
I'll stick up your photo on the wall
Playing the role of Juliet

But the trees in the wind are shaking their heads
I also don't understand why you're not with me

Put on my coat, go outside
Cold darkness out there
The phone is silent, A minor in my soul
And the string has burst

But the trees in the wind are shaking their heads
I also don't understand why you're not with me


Behind a wall, lives a white mouse
Without family or friends
The snow buried the city up to the roofs
The snow is the guru and know-it-all

But the trees in the wind are shaking their heads
I also don't understand why you're not with me

You promised to come at eight
But on the clock it's already eleven
You are still not here
I look out the window but there's only snow

Ok, this is not one of my best translations but I love this song, sung by the most innocent girl's voice. Soft but clear. It makes me sad but comfortable.
