When love [German translation]

When love is new,

It's something grand

A fleeting kiss

A squeeze of hands

A knowing look

You're flying high

And all at once

Nothing seems to matter

Just the new affair.

As time goes by,

You understand

There's more to this

Than holding hands

It feels like she

Has always been

Close by your side

And nothing seems to matter

Just the new affair.

It feels like you,

Just want to live,

Day after day

This lucky situation,

That's come your way.

When love is old,

It's like a song

The words are bare,

The music's wrong

And like a flower,

That slowly dies and fades away

Leaving no trace at all,

Of the new affair.

Seems to me

This time it's gonna be

An everlasting love

Now's the time to choose

You either win or lose

A lasting love

Seems to me

This time it's gonna be

An everlasting love

Now's the time to choose

You either win or lose

A lasting love

As time goes by,

You understand

There's more to this

Than holding hands

It feels like she

Has always been

Close by your side

And nothing seems to matter

Just the new affair.

It feels like you

Just want to live,

Day after day

This lucky situation,

That's come your way.
