Lover lover
what became of you
Where did the light go that guided me
on what star did I die
The pale brillance of today
Yesterday you were my adoration
such a short while ago I was still dying
dying of love for you

Lover lover
what became of me
What once was a finely tuned guitar
is moaning never ending chords
Today a sky of silence
and yesterday you were my cherub
In the red dream you were dancing
my fever and yours

Lover lover
the world’s icebergs
crash against my eyes
(turned into a vagabond ship)
And I only have the hope
of burning coals that torment me
song of ashen afternoon
Passion of thawing love
