Am Ufer
Udo Jürgens
On The Shore
On the shore of lived time
Your warmth envelops me
Completely wordless and full of tenderness
Like a whisper of sunshine
In the sea of restlessness
Floated up and down with waves
On the shore of hard-won time
Have I finally arrived
On the shore from a lively time
There is a shimmer in the blue air
And full of boundlessness
I hear life calling me
I am in bliss
Simply taken away by you
On the shore of dissolved time
Have I finally arrived
Our arms are stretched out wide
As if a goal had almost been reached
And gently carried by freedom
Let us float as light as wings
On the shore from a successful time
A room of light you are the door
I close my eyes, I'm ready
I live and I know what
My path to myself was crooked and long
And many things still seem blurry
On the shore of fulfilled times
Have I finally arrived
Have I finally arrived
