Aber die Liebe bleibt [English translation]

Time becomes space,

But love remains.

Desire becomes dream,

But love remains.

Though life took from us many things

What I got from you

I'll never lose.

The pain fades,

But love remains

And gives hope a meaning.

What the world writes in books of gold

Doesn't really make you rich

But love remains.

Sometimes I'm like a bird in the wind

Freezing in the snow and blinded by the sunshine.

And when I still find security..,

It's because you're near

Yes becomes no,

But love remains,

Truth is illusory

But love remains.

Nor will you ever walk beside me again,

What I received from you

Will live on in me.

The trace fades away,

But love remains

And gives longing a hold.

What drifts by in the current of time,

Becomes memory,

But love remains.

~~~

Time becomes space,

But love remains.

Wish becomes dream,

But love remains.

Though life took from us many things

What I got from you

I'll never lose.

The pain fades,

But love remains

And gives hope a meaning.

What the world writes in books of gold

Doesn't really make you rich

But love remains.
