From afar, it was so beautiful
And I hope that one day I will be forgiven
I spent my days dreaming that you were with me
From afar, it was so beautiful
How could I think it would turn out differently
How could I think it would mean more than the world
How could I think that we would be together
From afar, it was so beautiful
And I will never forget you
I spend the days knowing that the pain persists
From afar, it was so beautiful
And there is no one who can sympathize
And no one has to say something comforting
And no one has to make me start anew
I do it myself
From afar, it was so beautiful
And I hope that one day I will be forgiven
How could I think it would turn out differently
How could I think it would mean more than the world
How could I know what it's like to have so many regrets
Or is it just a thing of the past?
From afar, it was so beautiful.
