| The air will never have the same smell,
|
| the sun will never get to shine so bright again.
|
| How they hurt my eyes, god! |
| they hurt my eyes,
|
| now that you’re leaving.
|
| My past is travelling on an airplane,
|
| who will be there the next time I need a friend,
|
| and I close my eyes, now I close my eyes
|
| because you’re leaving.
|
| And the telephone is ringing in my hand,
|
| I have to cheer you up, and you still don’t understand
|
| why did you say goodbye, how did you say goodbye?
|
| it’s me who did it …
|
| I have my life right in front of me,
|
| my past seems one minute, present seems eternity.
|
| I want to freeze the time, so I close my eyes
|
| but you’re still leaving.
|
| With any problem I did lean on you.
|
| You are now my problem and I don’t know what to do.
|
| I see you fly away, god! |
| they hurt my eyes
|
| now that you’re leaving
|
| The telephone…
|
| And you still wonder how I didn’t cry.
|
| Of course I love you, but somehow I had to lie,
|
| beause you had to go, yes! |
| you had to go although you need me.
|
| Because your future is so far from here
|
| and from the distance I will help to fight your fears.
|
| I’ll have to be strong, yes! |
| I will be strong
|
| because you need me.
|
| And the telephone is ringing in my hand
|
| I have to cheer you up, and I don’t know if I can.
|
| If you could see my eyes, if you could see my eyes… |
