Summer lost a little of its beauty
The sun lost a little of its shine
When that, we had hoped for
fell apart and went to pieces
it was almost like happiness didn't exist.
You say that nothing has any meaning
that the one thing you want to have is peace and quiet
But we never go ahead
if we lean back
So come home to me and we will do something together.
You say, we have some point in life
when one is forced to understand
that everything, one took for granted
and everything, one took for good
was something which one only got on loan.
And I wish there was something to say
which gave you confidence and courage
But hope is born in action
I know you know that
So come home to me and we will do something together.
Like a boat without a sail
a beauty without a mirror
yes, like a homeless one you wander around
like an old one in the new
a prisoner in freedom
you don't dare to expect anything.
But there is a time when the seed must mature
There is a time when the grass must grow
And when your seed has completely matured
and your grass has become green
then come home to me and we will do something together.
