Fountain of Youth Songtext
von Aeternitas

The flowers of roses bloom nevermore again
The flowers of roses bloom only for a day

Everything is easy in the spring of life
Questions of the future (are) far away
But the looming winter comes relentlessly
Longing for lost youth grows on and on
Of no avail!
Riding on a journey now for centuries
Searching for a hope for all mankind
Promised is the water of deliverance
Still the secret fountain is concealed
And it will stay!

Rise up high into the glowing sky
The promises unbroken
Rise and fall into oblivion
The doubts remain unspoken


Decades full of wisdom and experience
Memories for one′s entire life
Blown away in seconds like an autumn leaf
When they heed the great seducer's call
You stupid fools!

Rise up high into the glowing sky
The promises unbroken
Rise and fall into oblivion
The doubts remain unspoken

Youth is only an illusion
No escape from Father Time
Youthful vigour and attraction
None of this is worth a dime
The flowers of roses bloom nevermore again
The flowers of roses bloom only for a ...
The flowers of roses bloom nevermore again
The flowers of roses bloom only for a day
Rise up high into the glowing sky
The promises unbroken
Rise and fall into oblivion
The doubts remain unspoken
