With joy and pride

I do not want you to turn away

I’m tired of my night and day

I do not want you to say goodbye

But if you do that, I won’t die

My mind is full of you and me

My heart is empty, how can it be?

My eyes are flooded by a tide

To cry my sorrow, I have to hide

You left me with my tiny hope

To prevent me from knife and rope

That one day you’ll return again

That one dream will for me remain

You think you’ve won and it is cool

Then go and find another fool

I think you’ve failed and it is right

With joy and pride I’ll sing and write
