My songs that will receive your touch
Where do they remain hidden
In what secret recesses of my mind!
In song after song I seek them in the dark
But my tears that will flow down to your feet
Where do they remain hidden
In what secret recesses of my heart!
When I pass my dry idle moments
Then I want to send you my songs as letters.
In the crowd of my joys and sorrows
My songs get lost
My last words that will knock at your door
Where do they remain hidden
In what deep recesses of my heart!
