Nur Ein Bild Von Dir
Amigos Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ich frag' das Bild in meinen Händen
Ist unser Traum schon vorbei?
Den wir geträumt einen Sommer lang
Oh, sag mir, ist alles vorbei?

Kannst Du die Zeit denn vergessen
Liegt dir denn gar nichts daran?
Du bist auf einmal so fremd zu mir

Oh, sag mir, was hab ich getan?

Nur ein Bild von dir, aus schönen Tagen
Zeigt mir heute noch, was einmal war
Doch das Bild von dir, kann mir nicht sagen
Wie das Glück zerrann, das so schön begann

Nur ein Bild von dir, aus schönen Tagen
Zeigt mir heute noch, was einmal war

Doch das Bild von dir, kann mir nicht sagen
Wie das Glück zerrann, das so schön begann
