Before the Morning Songtext
von Herbert Grönemeyer

Do you know this face
Do we still share a space
When the words all fade
You′re so distant
Disappearing with the wind
Oh what a tie to break

Give me your winding road
Let me light it all
When the words all fade
God needed heaven
So he wouldn't go insane
And it makes your world so brave

Before the morning takes
And before you feel the ache
Keep the memories, keep the stories
All the traces of the past
Only they will last


You speak without a word
A smile into the turm
When you call my name
I close my eyes
And I′m with you
Makes it right, so true

Before the morning takes
And before you feel the ache
Keep the memories, keep the stories
All the traces of the past
Only they will last

Sign off with white ink and send it all away
Walking to your fate
Do you feel or think
You found out what really matters
That it doesn't mean a thing
There is no reality, only your reality

Do you feel the same
Do you still need it all
When the words all fade
In your kindness you're married to old ways
You′re passing through these days


Before the morning takes
And before you feel the ache
Keep the memories, keep the stories
All the traces of the past
Only they will last

Ease the strings of all your worries
Freedom never came so near
And never felt so dear
