Hands holding hands, let us stand face to face

While underneath the bridge of our arms' entwined slow race
Dm F C G
Eternal gazes flowing at wave's pace

Let night fall, let the hours go by

The days pass on and here stand I

How violent is hope, love only knows

The days pass on and here stand I

The days flow ever on, the weeks pass by in vain

Time never will return, nor our loves burn again
