Franz Peter Lyrics by Bryan Benner

Weissensee

0

I've been thinking lately about you dying
You were younger then than I am now
What would you have left behind, I wonder
If you had lived a few more years somehow

Would you learn what it's like to feel your heart break
And to find yourself again after the storm
Could you have found someone to still your longing
To love you as a man and as a boy

I guess I'll just have to do it for you
To live these later years life took from you
A heart like yours, it should have lived forever
But thirtyone short years will havе to do

[2nd verse sung in later performances]
I look at all the friends I have around mе
They lift me up, they share my melodies
And I can feel how much they would have loved you
For your music, and for your company

How it must have hurt to watch you fade away
And to watch your beauty blossom as it dies
A smile on your face for those who loved you
As your body failed and you told them Goodbye

I guess we'll just have to do it for you
To live these later years life took from you
A heart like yours, it should have lived forever
But thirtyone short years will have to do
