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
