Show Me The Place

Show me the place where we stood side by side,
Once, when you were mine -
Earlier, before your love for me died,
Earlier, when you were mine.
Look, it’s the same, the silver sea
Shines in the sun rays, just like before
It once shined, a welcoming
For our love that endured and everything enhanced.

Show me the place where we knelt together,
Once, when you were mine -
Earlier, when one soul possessed us,
Earlier, when you were mine.
Look, it’s the same, the sky, so blue,
Smiles just as before on me and on you,
It continues to shine as a welcoming
For our love that endures and everything enhances.

Show me the place where we use to walk,
Once, when you were mine -
Earlier, when our hearts hoped so much,
Earlier, when you were mine.
Look, it’s the same!
Except for you.
Which one of us has the most to bear?
You, that has forgotten - or me, that has to pay
For my love that endures and all enhances?
