Die Sehnsucht bleibt
Udo Jürgens
The Longing Remains
The longing remains
She doesn't give up
And she doesn't get older
What drives you
Is this desire for more
You tried so hard to fit in
Into reality
The anger is tired, things win
Only the longing remains
Around you
No more songs and the world is colder
You adapt
And say you're fine
So that dreams can finally rest
Have you buried them deep
And you forget
What you miss
But your longing remains
You don't ask
You don't complain
You don't defend yourself
You see what must be
You are missing nothing
Nothing torments you
You just often think
That can't be all
The longing remains
She doesn't give up and she doesn't get older
What drives you
Is this desire for more
So that dreams can finally rest
Have you buried them deep
And you forget
What you miss
So you know the longing remains
The longing remains
