Songtext:
O the sisters of mercy they are not Folienbeschriftung Bergisch Gladbach
Departed or gone,
They were waiting for me when I thought
That I just can't go on, Tannenbaum basteln
And they brought me their comfort
And later they brought me this song.
O I hope you run into them Finca Spanien
You who've been traveling so long.

Yes, you who must leave everything Immobilien Baden-Baden
That you cannot control;
It begins with your family,
But soon it comes round to your soul. Glücksrad mieten
Well, I've been where you're hanging
I think I can see how you're pinned.
When you're not feeling holy, Urlaub Ostsee
Your loneliness says that you've sinned.

Well they lay down beside me spiele für kindergeburtstag
I made my confession to them.
They touched both my eyes
And I touched the dew on their hem.
If your life is a leaf
That the seasons tear off and condemn
They will bind you with love
That is graceful and green as a stem.

When I left they were sleeping,
I hope you run into them soon.
Don't turn on the light
You can read their address by the moon;
And you won't make me jealous
If I hear that they sweeten your night
We weren't lovers like that
And besides it would still be all right
We weren't lovers like that
And besides it would still be all right.
