(To sing with the music of "Du bist die Welt fur mich, song by Richard Tauber):

You were my Morning Sun...
You were my Guiding Star...
Through all these years.
Now you've become the sand,
this very sand I feel,
under my feet,
and when I touch you somehow
with both my hands,
thinking I'll find your heart
(there...).
Even the brightest days
seem to me cold and dark,
like starless nights.

Now time feels so long and so worthless,
my life seems a Fall since you're gone,
the Sun may appear every morning
but it looks as pale as the Moon,
because in the air of the desert
your spirit turns everything white,
but still there's your heart shining somewhere
just like trembling shadows of light.

And little fires bring hope,
right when the soul gets lost
in loneliness...
But it's my hands who need
to reach again your face,
and trying so hard
they just make holes in this sand,
to get to you
thru' the night that's below...
My looove!
Yet when my heart get tired
of looking for you in vain,
we'll join... At laaast!!!
