I was already so far away from you
 And no words remained for us to speak
 And the wind swept away a lone sail
 And made it lonelier still
 Awake from every dream and every whisper
 This too shall pass
 All that was once and was forgotten
 Today will not return
 It is every wrinkle carved deep into the skin
 That today burns deeper still
 For there is no way back
 And this too shall pass
 Every day follows another
 And night follows night
 And as long as nothing changes on this earth
 It is good we stayed together
 And that we have someone with whom to share
 Despite everything there is no way back
 And this too shall pass
 Every wound that healed and reopened
 Today burns even more
 It mends and restores itself
 And again it all bursts forward, even stronger
 Now it does not fall apart and crack
 And this too shall pass
 Do you remember how we once were?
 Facing the strengthening wind
 And after all the bad years
 Many better years came to pass
 Our time rushes forward continuously
 And never stops
