The sad boy

I feel drawn to you

Wherever I go, wherever I am

Have no rest, no peace

I am a sad boy.

When I asked the clouds:

"Take me with you"

They drew forth with the wind

And left me here unhappy.

And I still can feel it:

The moon shone so beautifully

You sat with me

Until I had to leave,

You pressed my hand

You led me far

And leaned your head against me

And wept bitterly

"May God protect you, dear boy

You deprived me of peace

You have become my all

I tell you now because you must go"

And when you said that

My heart beat heavily

I had to close my eyes

And swallow my tears.

I have travelled wide around

In the world without stop

I looked for you overall

But I find no girl like you

I talked to every tree

And asked every stream

"What has has become of you?

Do you still think of me?"
