Liebe Lebt

Who knows what love is
Who could ever explain it
The singer searches for her sound
The painter dreams of her colors

The poet never captures them
No matter how often he describes them
And no one will ever know
Why she leaves why she stays

But when you are here very close to me
Is the secret so clear
Then you don't have to explain love anymore
Then it is simply there

Love lives in your smile
In your hands that touch me
Love lives every second
That you give me
And in which we always feel

What love can do is limitless
Lets us see the world differently
She holds us fast she sets us free
And don't ask us if we understand

But when we are silent
Only feelings are
Is the secret so clear
Then you don't have to explain love anymore
Then it is simply there

Love lives in your smile
In your hands that touch me
Love lives every second
That you give me
And in which we always feel

Love also lives in tears
In our fear
That we ever lose our happiness
