Pictures of the past
memories which never last
within a moment´s time
the blinking of an eye

to oblivion they turn and there remain

Chorus 1
When there is nothing I can remember now today
all my faults and mistakes will be forgiven
Then for me grows a second to day
the lifetime of hours

Faster flies a day
in seconds years are gone away
to minds which can´t divide
as Lethe´s flowing stream
future from yester days

Chorus 2
When there is nothing I can remember now today
all my faults and mistakes will be forgiven
Then there rises a second today
but the lifetime of ours is fading away

The presence of the Now
nothing to obey and bow
to time noone attends
the turning of the clock
a circle of no meaning ends

Chorus 2
