no regrets before death
See the leaves wither, see the flowers die As animals seek shelter, as birds towards south do fly Forever my farewell is, forever will I depart Forever my soul remains black, forever remains my heart I do not hope for remedy, I lost all hope on my way And all I ever wished for was to find love where I stayed And all the blood was spilled, how many tears were shed As darkness falls upon the sky these thoughts return to my head Autumn... I welcome you home Waiting so long, always alone Autumn... the cold of the sky Now at last to die I do not attach importance to sunshine any more Or sparkling fountains that the youth is so fond of I love darkness and the shadows of the night Here I can be alone with my thoughts and my emotions I do not ask forgiveness, my sins are far too great I walked the streets of Babylon, I always turned up late I do not claim to be guilty, guilt does not suffice Wherever I brought hell, I took away your paradise See the leaves wither, see the flowers die As animals seek shelter, as birds towards south do fly Forever my farewell is, forever will I depart Forever my soul remains black, forever remains my heart Autumn... at last you have come Never again will I see the sun Closing my eyes, for one last time I kiss you and whisper "goodbye"
