Where Are You Now
Where are you now when my days darken again?Where are you now when I lack strength?
Your portrait got shattered yesterday,
and around me there are only dreams cut in half.
But you know me by heart,
but you know it all.
I can leave this world just like that
and run, run after you.
Just tell me, please...
tell me where...
where you are now.
Where are you now,
when suddenly twilight turns into dawn?
When again it’s so shameful to admit
that life turns into a joke, a house of cards.
But you know me by heart,
but you know it all.
I can leave this world just like that
and run, run after you.
Just tell me, please...
tell me where...
where you are now.
You know well that in spite of thunderstorms
I can run blindly1 after you
even when in my fickle dreams
fear gets mixed with rain.
Even if my days should blacken,
I will always have you in my blood.
I will forget only when
time tags me with the coffin black.
But you know me by heart,
but you know it all.
I can leave this world just like that
and run, run after you.
Just tell me, please...
tell me where...
Just tell me, please,
where you are now.
Where are you now when my days darken again?
