Deine Spuren im Sand [English translation]

We had the sun, we had the stars

We had the dunes, we had the ocean wide

And I felt like time

Was completely under my control

The two of us were all I cared about

I knew I had you

How simple and plain

It all was

Your footprints in the sand

That I still could trace yesterday

Have been washed away by the flood

What is still mine now?

Your love, it faded

Like the footprints in the sand

What do I have left now?

Nothing but my longing for you

I don't know when you started

To walk along the beach without me

And to look past me in silence

When I asked you about it

Often you don't realize the whole truth

Until it is too late

Here I am now

What can I do?

Your footprints in the sand

That I still could trace yesterday

Have been washed away by the flood

What is still mine now?

Your love, it faded

Like the footprints in the sand

What do I have left now?

Nothing but my longing for you

Looleelooleelooley, looleelooleelooley, have been

Washed away by the flood, looleelooleelooley

Your love, it faded

Like the footprints in the sand

What do I have left now?

Nothing but my longing for you
