Don't be cross

Where there was the miller's daughter
There came too the fisher lad
But she only laughed at him
For she had her sights set higher!
At night when he was going fishing
He knocked lightly and bid:
Become mine and open up!
But she sang scornfully in reply:
 
Don't be cross, it cannot be
Don't be cross and get along with you
Don't be cross and don't make a face
God keep you, God keep you, don't forget me!
Don't be cross and don't make a face
God keep you, God keep you, don't forget me!
 
And thus the miller's daughter made her way
Into the world with a proud mind
Finally she returns
But she is no longer proud
If at night the fisherman goes out
She calls out aching and timid
Comfort me and come to me!
But now he sings to her:
 
Don't be cross, it cannot be
Don't be cross and get along with you
Don't be cross and don't make a face
God keep you, God keep you, don't forget me!
Don't be cross and don't make a face
God keep you, God keep you, don't forget me!
 

The Sea Is Wide

I often dream of a life
That's different to what I know
I believe that only a sea of tears
Separates me from this land of hope
 
But the sea is wide
And your heart cannot fly
So only longing remains
But deep inside me there is so much love
That will carry me for all eternity
 
And one day, I find peace there
Then my dream guides me far away
I give my heart to the wind from the south
That carries it out to the horizon
 
Yes the sea is wide
And your heart cannot fly
So only longing remains
But deep inside me there is so much love
That will carry me for all eternity
 
In eternity, in eternity
Really deep inside me there is so much love
That will carry me for eternity
That will carry me for eternity

Never say there's no way on

Yes, you're not doing so well
Yes, you're lacking courage
You've lost a lot
And feel how much it hurts
And now you're standing there
Throwing your life away
You tell me
There's no point
Believe in the dreams
That are still open
Look for the one
That flies you to the horizon
 
[Refrain:]
Never say there's no way on
Never say it's over
Find yourself a new goal
Feelings are free
Never say there's no way on
Never say you're giving up
Fight for the happiness
Of the moment
And never just wait for it
 
If things go wrong sometimes
If the pain sits deep inside
Sometimes the world dissolves
The spirits it conjures up
And a light
Shines in the dark
That frees you from your worries
Believe in the dreams
That are still open
Look for the one
That flies you to the horizon
 
Refrain
 
Fight for the happiness
Of the moment
And never just wait for it
 

Never Say That Happiness Is Only Borrowed

Versions: #1#2
The sun needs the moon,
A star needs the dark night
For it to shine the more brilliantly
The flower needs the light
But I, I need only you
You alone to be happy
Make no room for doubt
Always look me in the eye
For me to know that dreams don't die
 
[Refrain:]
Never say that happiness is only borrowed
Let our love never wither
Give me a piece of eternity
A feeling that stays forever
Never say that our time goes by
And that the wind shifts sometimes
Just tell me softly, I love you
Because there's nothing more beautiful to me
 
I know reality
exists on borrowed time
And everything comes to an end one day
I know that in this world
Nothing can be forever
But I don't want you
To tell me that
Not one moment with you
I'd like to lose to anxiety
I just want to be quite near you
 
[Refrain:]
 
Just tell me softly, I love you
Because there's nothing more beautiful to me

You have never seen the sea

I was still a child
And had only known the countryside
Around our small town
Thought it looked everywhere like that.
But Mammi told me all about
The many wonders of this world.
Her words are still with me today:
 
[Refrain:]
⎡You have never seen the sea
So endlessly wide and beautiful.
Only after a thousand dreams
Is there the horizon.
You have never seen the sea,
The ships at anchor
And sails that flutter in the wind
Go see for yourself ...⎦
Then you'll be able to understand the world.
 
Later I was often
Many a long day
In the house that lie immediately by the shore,
Was totally crazy about
The wind and sand and sea.
And when my child asks:
'Does the world look like this,
Just as beautiful as here at home?'
Then I just say to him,
'Well, listen.
 
Refrain (x2)
Then you'll be able to understand the world.'
