I wish you knew

I wish you knew, oh I wish you knew
that you're the one I sing for
While all the stars fade into day
While all the clouds they travel.

I wish you knew, I wish you heard
that you're the one I miss so
you are the breath that meets the breeze
and all ends when it's over.

You are the light that death has not
and I might never have you
...for What is Not, is my only friend
and it will surely have me
...for absence is my only state
and longing is my nature

I wish you knew, I wish you heard
that you're the one I sing for.

the spring

my heart is left outside
crying with the wind
and all the green meadows
are crying for him

my soul is left outside
a seed in the spring
and all the young clouds
are caressing him

and I know he's happy
and I feel content
but I am the old day
and I have to forget

and I am the old night
and wish him the best
but my love keeps growing
and I cannot rest
