The World is Beautiful

The night was long
I asked myself
How can it go on
And dark clouds stretched over the sea
 
I just sat there
And did nothing else
But look at the wall
And the river flowed calmly far ahead
 
I stretched
I looked around
I went just to go
And shadows danced with the wind
 
I said to myself:
Maybe we are
Not here to understand
We die the way we came
 
Then came the day with its colors
It came to me and it was new
And I have to say, despite all the complaining:
I'm doing fine. The world is beautiful, I love being alive*
 
The sun shines in through the door
And looks at me radiantly
Says to me, she has something else to do
But would like to be with me later
I know I'm her man
And she blows me kisses with a look
 
And how we drive through the countryside
With friends or just us two
On these days I'd like to say to her:
I love you. The world is beautiful, I love being alive
 
And God treks through the galaxies
He is so solitary and alone
On some days he seems to say:
I'm OK. The world is beautiful, I love being alive
