|
I was already so far away from you |
|
And no words remained for us to speak |
|
And the wind swept away a lone sail |
|
And made it lonelier still |
|
Awake from every dream and every whisper |
|
This too shall pass |
|
All that was once and was forgotten |
|
Today will not return |
|
It is every wrinkle carved deep into the skin |
|
That today burns deeper still |
|
For there is no way back |
|
And this too shall pass |
|
Every day follows another |
|
And night follows night |
|
And as long as nothing changes on this earth |
|
It is good we stayed together |
|
And that we have someone with whom to share |
|
Despite everything there is no way back |
|
And this too shall pass |
|
Every wound that healed and reopened |
|
Today burns even more |
|
It mends and restores itself |
|
And again it all bursts forward, even stronger |
|
Now it does not fall apart and crack |
|
And this too shall pass |
|
Do you remember how we once were? |
|
Facing the strengthening wind |
|
And after all the bad years |
|
Many better years came to pass |
|
Our time rushes forward continuously |
|
And never stops |
