Jenseits von Eden English translation
von Nino de Angelo

When even a child no longer laughs like a child
Then we are beyond Eden
When we don't feel the Earth crying
Like no other planet
Then we have lived in vain

When a tear is just water
Then we are beyond Eden
When one has to pay for love
Just to be tender once
Then we have lived in vain

Let us feel life endlessly every day
And never lose our honesty
If nothing holds us together anymore
Perhaps the last light in the world will fade


When our faith can no longer prevail
Then we are beyond Eden
When every hope is just a horizon
That one never reaches
Then we have lived in vain
Then we have lived in vain

I want to feel a new love with you
Even if we only touch in thoughts
Someday I will have to leave forever
Then I want to say, this world was beautiful

When even a child no longer laughs like a child
Then we are beyond Eden
When we don't feel the Earth crying
Like no other planet
Then we have lived in vain

When a tear is just water
Then we are beyond Eden
When one has to pay for love
Just to be tender once
Then we have lived in vain
Then we have lived in vain
Then we have lived in vain
