My world has disappeared, Josephine
gone is everything I lived for
as easy as how the days flow by
flows the blood out of my veiins
and when the earth will drink that blood up
the tears with tear down the dam
for everyone who's alive
somewhere waits his Waterloo
Josephine, everything comes to an end
only the pain lasts forever
when our own die, only the others remain
the time breaks every bond after all
when the death takes even our children
the tears with tear down the dam
all the roads I discovered
only take me to Waterloo
Now nobody would want to join me anymore
to go with me through what awaits me
I didn't know when I was still flying
that I wasn't soaring, but falling down to the dark
My dream, oh my Josephine
has taken away all my strength
the pair of your eyes under your fringe
nobody cries for me anymore
they will probably close the gates of Heaven
in the face of my hard-bitten soul
for all those black crows
that will gather at Waterloo tomorrow
Now nobody would want to join me anymore...
My world is gone, Josephine
the world I laid down at your feet
your lips red like wine
whisper "Say, what did you live for?"
while we're still here, we drink
until the tears tear down the dams
the nape of your neck awaits my palm
and Waterloo awaits me
