The faces remain the same

Finally I looked up and now I see,
That we have changed.
Long, too long we fooled ourselves, took habit for love,
Didn't see that we had changed.
Must have been clouds in my eyes, romantic dreams in my head
That covered reality.
      Now I see nothing seems to be the same
      Now our stars are faded - where are we going?
      The light in your eyes is getting pale
      The storm in our hearts has calmed down -
      where are we going?
            All our dreams we swore never to forsake,
            The common winds have blown them far away,
            What will stay? - The faces remain the same.
Long, too long we held on tied to a dream,
That was broken long ago,
Must have been clouds in our eyes,
romantic dreams in our heads,
That covered reality.
      Now I see there's nothing left to say,
      My words don't reach you anymore - where are we going?
      It ain’t no use to ask for reasons,
      It ain't no use to ask for guilt - where are we going?
            All our dreams we swore never to forsake,
            The common winds have blown them far away,
            What will stay? - The faces remain the same.
      What is left to say after all these years?
      All good wishes have gone stale - where are we going?
      One day these broken wings will heal,
      But a scar will remain - where are we going?
            All our dreams we swore never to forsake,
            The common winds have blown them far away,
            What will stay? - The faces remain the same.
