We lay in the grass dreaming
Our heads full of crazy ideas
Then he said just for fun
Come let's go on a trip.
But the smoke tasted bitter
Yet Conny told me what he saw
A sea of light and colours
We did not suspect
What was about to happen soon afterwards.
The day Conny Kramer died
And all the bells were ringing
The day Conny Kramer died
And all the friends were crying for him.
That was a sad day
Because inside myself a world was shattered.
He often promised: "I'll quit."
That gave me new hope
And I told myself
With love everything will be allright.
But the joints became trips,
There was no stop on the crooked path.
People started to talk
But nobody offered Conny help.
The day Conny Kramer died
And all the bells were ringing
The day Conny Kramer died
And all the friends were crying for him.
That was a sad day
Because inside myself a world was shattered.
On his last time he said
Now I can see heaven
I screamed at him: "Oh, come back!"
He couldn't understand it anymore.
I didn't even have tears anymore,
I had lost everything I had.
Life just keeps moving on,
For me all that remains are
The flowers on his grave.
The day Conny Kramer died
And all the bells were ringing
The day Conny Kramer died
And all the friends were crying for him.
That was a sad day
Because inside myself a world was shattered.
