Kleistsjug - Ripple on the Sea Lyrics

When I was young, well she was younger
I don't know if she remembers
Love was but a ripple on the sea

Many times I thought of waiting
She was just anticipating
When she at last would give herself to me

Every morning smelled of roses
No pretenses, no stiff poses
And evening brought a soothing ocean breeze

But through a lifetime, the true thing ages
Lines will form, the shoreline changes
Love's no more a ripple on the sea

It feels more like a roller coaster
I don't know if I can hold her
I often think that she's too much for me

We try to cope with all these senses
Wailing walls and silent fences
But in the end we'll set each other free

So find yourself another lover
Don't relent, you'll soon discover
That there's another ripple upon the sea

When I was young, well you were younger
I don't know if you remember
When love was but a ripple on the sea
