You still sometimes read the old letters that he wrote you
In which every line said to you "I love you"
You close your eyes and dream of him
and of lost happiness
But the hands of the clock only rotate
Forward, forward and never backwards
You still have many nice photos of that time
For these wonderful years, you are sorry
you close your eyes, dream of him
and of lost happiness
But the hands of the clock only rotate
Forward, forward and never backwards
You feel lonely and dream of yesterday,
yet you live today
There will come someone who will free you of your dreams
You close your eyes
and then begins for you a new happiness
Because the hands of the clock only rotate
Forward, forward and never backwards
The hands of the clock only rotate
Forward, forward and never backwards
