Das alte Lied,
Es ist ja nur das alte Lied.
Die Liebe kommt, die Liebe geht
Die Träne fließt zu spät.
Mir ist so weh,
Wenn ich Dein Bild im Traume seh'
Warum lässt Du mich so allein
So einsam sein?
Sei Du nicht traurig
Denn mir ist so bang,
Wenn Deine Seele wie meine so krank.
Reich mir zum Abschied
Nur noch einmal Hand.
Liebe und Leid sind einander verwandt.
Das alte Lied,
Es ist ja nur das alte Lied.
Die Liebe kommt, die Liebe geht
Die Träne fließt zu spät.
Mir ist so weh,
Wenn ich Dein Bild im Traume seh'
Warum lässt Du mich so allein
So einsam sein?
