Where is the sun,
Where is the day I’m looking for
Where is the moon,
Where are the stars that shined before
Where are you, where are you?

Where is the time when hours
Were like minutes here before
Where are the nights
When it was warm and even on the floor
Where are you, where are you?

Where are the eyes that looked at me
With love and nothing more
Where are the arms that made me feel so
Welcome at the door
Where are you, where are you?
