Once we were so happy, once we were so young
Life just gets bigger and bigger, I feel I've got no tongue
There's no hardship I won't bear, no tear I will not cry
There's no box I would not open-no place I would not fly
There's a sailor on the ocean, who has stolen all the songs
The ones I used to write you, delirious and long
But there's no secret castle, and I have no magic key
There is nothing I can give you, without you loving me
Every time I feel the spirit moving in my heart
I will bend myself to hear it, I will leave you in the dark
I'll forget about the morning, I'll forget to make the bed
In the evening there's a warning, and an oven full of bread
I've been searching for the fountain, while drinking at the dregs
I've been hiding on the mountain, where the eagle lays her eggs
And it's like I am struck dumb, and you are deaf and blind
There is nothing I can give you that I have not been to find
