Today, as so many years ago,
The shivering's running in the sand;
Following my punctual pace
And my tired out heart-beat;
Recovery is what I'm looking for
And my thoughts are giving up.

Today, for so many years
with a lump in my throat
I don't understand how this came true;
Today, for so many years
with a lump in my throat
I don't understand how this
Happened to me too.

Time passed me by, and life is living around me;
The name that's written in my heart
Will be changed;
Time passed me by, but the tears in my eyes
Are still the same,
The darkness in my soul is killing me...
...Little by little.

Shimmering in front of my eyes
The fear of a dream
That could end in a glimpse,
...And I know it won't last long
...My pace is getting faster.

Time passed me by, and life is living around me;
The name that's written in my heart
Will be changed;
Time passed me by, but the tears in my eyes
Are still the same,
The darkness in my soul is killing me.
