Dance, she told me, dance
the Cypress trees didn't know whether to laugh or cry
dance as long as you can
i am not built for a dance lesson.
Her young head on mine
you will not find anymore Cypress trees like these in the city
love as long as you are able
by the way, she said love me
Until today quite strange
didn't understand a thing
it is either her young age or my old age
until today in the area of five and thirty
a shadow falls from the tops of the Cypress trees
she says: forget it, it is this type of sunset
Dance, she told me, dance
the Cypress trees are in heaven, we are still here
dance without stopping
we are not able to leave here
Until today quite strange
didn't understand a thing
it is either her young age or my old age
until today in the area of five and thirty
a shadow falls from the tops of the Cypress trees
she says: forget it, it is this type of sunset
It is ok to let go1
at her age i also touched a Cypress tree
better to dance for half a minute
better than to lose her
Until today quite strange
didn't understand a thing
it is either her young age or my old age
until today in the area of five and thirty
a shadow falls from the tops of the Cypress trees
she says: forget it, it is this type of sunset
Now between a few Cypress trees
i am the one that dances
quite alone...
