Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Der weiB daB ich heut′von dir geh'
Weine nicht wenn der
Abschied kommt träunen tun so weh
Goodbye may love goodbye
Goodbye-auf wiederseh′n Die Zeit im Sommer -Sonnenwind
Mit dir allein war schön
Goodbye my love goodbye
Ich bleib dir treu bis wir
Uns einmal wiederseh'n
Überall werd ich einsam sein
Denn dich vergessen kann ich nie
Nur der wind, er begleitet mich
Mit seiner Melodie
Goodbye my love goodbye
Goodbye-auf wiederseh′n
Die Zeit im Sommer -Sonnenwind
Mit dir allen war schön
Goodbye my love goodbye
Das Glück vird nie vergeh′n ich bleib dir treu bis wir
Uns einmal wiederseh'n
In Vicky Léandros's song "Goodbye My Love Goodbye," the singer is addressing a farewell to her lover, as she is leaving him. The lyrics suggest a certain mode of emotional detachment that the singer is trying to create as a coping mechanism, while she is experiencing the intense pain of living away from the love of her life. The lyrics reflect the nostalgia of memories that she shared with her lover in the summertime, when the sun warmed their skin, and they were happy together, alone.
The song is about experiencing separation and the painful feeling of longing. The singer encourages her lover not to cry when they say goodbye, as dreams hurt so much, and though she will miss him, she will always remember him and stay true. The wind is the only thing that will stay with her and accompany her on the journey of being apart from the one she loves. Overall, the song enacts the emotions of departure, staying faithful to the departed love, and the longing for a future reunion.
