Sitting here in this lonely old guest house
I'm sure that my life is all through
Scratching fleas and watching a grey mouse
I'm making love to the memory of you
For without you I'm weak and uncertain
And I feel so naked and cold
Like a window without any curtains
My innermost feelings unfold
The drink I just had
It wasn't as bad as the first
But drinking won't do
When it's only for you I thirst, I thirst
For your kiss it quenches all burning
And it's sweeter than the sweetest of wine
Now you're gone I find myself yearning
For the love that I left behind
Nobody can heal
The pain that I feel inside
And if I said I'm strong
And I'm never wrong – I lied, I lied
Nobody can heal
The pain that I feel inside
And if I said I'm strong
And I'm never wrong – I lied, I lied, I lied
