[Moritz]
Those you've known
And lost, still walk behind you
All alone
They linger till they find you
Without them
The world grows dark around you
And nothing is the same until you know that they have found you
[Wendla]
Those you've pained
May carry that still with them
All the same
They whisper: All forgiven
Still your heart says
The shadows bring the starlight
And everything you've ever been is still there in the dark night
When the northern wind blows
The sorrows your heart holds
There are those who still know
They're still home
We're still home
[Moritz]
Thought you know
You've left them far behind
You walk on by yourself, and not with them -
Still you know
They will fill your heart and mind
When they say there's a way through this
[Wendla and Mortiz]
Those you've known
And lost, still walk behind you
All alone
Their song still seems to find you
They call you
As if you knew their longing
They whistle through the lonely wind, the long blue shadows falling
[Melchior]
All alone
But still I hear their yearning
Through the dark, the moon, alone there, burning
The stars too
They tell of spring returning
And summer with another wind that no one yet has known
They call me
Through all things
Night's falling
But somehow I go on
You watch me
Just watch me
I'm calling
From longing
[Wendla]
When the northern wind blows
The sorrows your heart's known
I believe
[Melchior]
Still you known
There's so much more to find
Another dream, another love you'll hold
Still you know
To trust your own true mind
On your way - you are not alone
There are those who still know
Now they'll walk on my arm through the distant night
And I won't let them stray from my heart
Through the wind, through the dark, through the winter light
I will read all their dreams to the stars
I'll walk now with them
I'll call on their names
I'll see their thoughts are known
[Wendla and Moritz]
Not gone
Not gone
[Melchior]
They walk with my heart
I'll never let them go
I'll never let them go
I'll never let them go
You watch me
Just watch me
I'm calling
I'm calling
And one day all will know
