I’m rain and you – you are the
Sun,
Attractive, always having fun.
You make all people melt near
you,
Heartbreaker, unawares, it’s
true!
You are the Sun and I am rain.
You’re hot, that’s why you cause
me pain.
One smile from you can make me
glad,
Your smile is rare, that’s why
I’m sad.
Yes, Sun and rain, they rarely
meet,
Still happens that they sometimes
greet.
Must be apart, though souls are
one
And so, when rain is near the Sun
A wonderful rainbow, always worth
seeing
As a symbol of consistency comes
into being.

How come that I’m so fool, so
fool –
Just can’t help thinking about
you.
How come you’re always on my
mind,
It’s peace that I now want to
find.
You’ve got real infuence on me
Though you’re so far, please, set
me free.
I’m striving for your admiration,
Your love for me is my creation.
I guess ...I guess you even might
At once when I am out of sight
Forget me quite indifferently –
Why do I think of you then
gently?
I’m young, my daily thoughts have
gone,
Instead I feel like some John
Donne.
Near you I sharply feel my age
But I can turn another page
When, far away, I think of you,
Then seems like I’m of your age,
too.
At first I need to learn so much,
Must give my mind the final
touch.
The only bridge from me to you
Is knowledge and „below the Moon“
There is no place for me and you,
I hoped so once, but I was fool.

Where is the happy angel
That used to live in me
So cheerful, calm and tender
So sweet it used to be
When was my soul abandoned
Who stole my luck and joy
I never can believe that man
For fate is just a toy
Oh, earlier I knew I was
At least it seemed to me
Invloved in life, a part of it
And in some way more free
Now everything is different
There is no pleasure left
And doing something for myself
Sometimes seems like a theft
The things that matter to me much
Are nonsense for the rest
And I can see no reason in
All that for them is best
*
This day was like a happy end
To all that I have had
It brought me back my old good
times
I once again was glad
Those words, those words ran in
my head
That doleful melody
Your accidental slip of tongue
It told me much, you see
But time, how funny, changes all
There’s left no more to tell
Have I grown up or what is it
My prince of dreams, farewell
(sweet sixteen)
