Mere Words [German translation]

Never once felt I aversion

Had you asked me from the heart

With foulness I’d impart

All my lies told for diversion

Mastered passions were my home then

Thoughts like in the olden days

In my silence did I stay

Devil’s silver tongue all cloven

And I took my grace for granted

Living life I was enchanted

Those are only

Those are only, I have heard, words, mere words

Bless my feet, I am astounded

Trust in blindness them I will

For I stand where they hold still

Head in stars, those feet are grounded

Light a candle in the twilight

Of the paths that I will tread

Sound nor silence will I dread

I will step into the limelight

And I took my grace for granted

Living life I was enchanted

Those are only

Those are only, I have heard, words, mere words

Care for goodness and affection

Be alert to fellow kin

Discard profit when I win

Stay the course of my direction

May I be aware of care

May I learn how to forget, I might regret

This man has yet

To find answers in his prayer

And I took my grace for granted

Living life I was enchanted

Those are only

Those are only, I have heard, words, mere words

And I took my grace for granted

Living life I was enchanted

Those are only

Those are only, I have heard, words, mere words
