Well this is such A sad affair I've opened up my heart So many times But now it's closed Oh my dear Every salted tear It wrings Bitter - sweet applause But when the show's in full swing Every once in a while High stepping chorus lines Mean I'm forgetting Mein lullaby - liebchen How rich in contrast Love can be Sometimes I'm quite amused To see it twist and turn To taste - both sweet and dry These vintage years! Lovers you consume, my friend As others their wine Nein - das ist nicht Das ende der welt Gestrandet an leben und kunst Und das spiel geht weiter Wie man weiss Noch viele schonste...wiedershen And now, as you turn to leave You try to force a smile - As if to compensate - Then you break down and cry
