Blue Bayou

The way I often go in my thoughts
leads along the river to the lake
and to you who is waiting
on the Blue Bayou
under trees is a house
it looks like a fairy tale
in it lives love and you
on the Blue Bayou
 
I begin again
whenever at the Blue Bayou
leaving you is leaving the world
behind me at the Blue Bayou *
with you I learn to see
each new day as a gift
I went home again
and since then time stood still for me
 
Once you said stay here
because otherwise I will certainly lose you
I live far away
and soon you will forget the Blue Bayou
that time courage failed me
I said to myself that's not good
But to-day I constantly dream
of the Blue Bayou
 
I begin again
whenever at the Blue Bayou
leaving you is leaving the world
behind me at the Blue Bayou
 
With you I learn to see
each new day as a gift
I went home again
and from then time stood still for me
 
And to-day I constantly dream
of the Blue Bayou...
 
* Literally:
Leave the world beside you
Behind me at the Blue Bayou
