In allen Dingen lebt ein Lied

I can still smell your scent on me
You just left here
Your lipstick on the red wine glass
Your laughter still in the room

The air is full of tenderness
And intensely lived time
The night we gave each other
I still hardly understand

And I go to the piano
As if I were in a trance
And hit the keys
As light as it has been for a long time

In all things lives a song
A song that bears your name
A song where even the smallest note
Inspired and moved

Even if it happens at some point
And our paths separate
You will be with me forever
In all things a song lives for you

There was so much that I sang
Weltenschmerz and Sturm und Drang
I have charged
And knew no taboo

But I also found words for what
Whether peace freedom fatherland
No reason has ever been so essential
As essential as you

Even if we never see each other again
This night never ends
Because it always comes back
In every melody

In all things lives a song
A song that bears your name
A song where even the smallest note
Inspired and moved

In all things lives a song

You will be with me forever
In all things a song lives for you
