Was wirklich bleibt English translation
von Christina Stürmer

Life is heaven
Life is hell
You build your happiness on sand
Then comes the wave

On any of your days
The wind can turn
And something gives you the strength
To get back up again

What will you remember?
What do you want to remember?

And then you look back, back
On what truly remains
We don't have infinite time
Tell me, what truly remains

And then you look back, back
At the shadows and the happiness
We don't have forever
Tell me, what truly remains


Sometimes you feel like a stranger
In the most beautiful place in the world
Sometimes you're just happy
When only the rain is falling

Time continues to pass
It pulls you down
Pulls you up, but
What do you want to remember?

And then you look back, back
On what truly remains
We don't have infinite time
Tell me, what truly remains

And then you look back, back
At the shadows and the happiness
We don't have forever
Tell me, what truly remains

Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da da da
Da da da da da da


What brought us here?
What made us who we are?
What is it that truly remains?
I want to remember you.

And then I look back, back
On what truly remains
We don't have an infinite amount of time
Tell me, what truly remains

And then I look back, back
At the shadows and the happiness
We don't have forever
Tell me, what truly remains

Back, back
To what truly remains
We don't have forever

And then you look back
On the shadows and the happiness
We don't have forever
Tell me, what truly remains
