Depressive Age - The Story lyrics

Music: Jochen Klemp, Lyrics: Jan Lubitzki

I feel you whisper - so far, dear sister

But now a shudder - your voice, stepfather

Is it a deception? - or true affection?

Do you feel better? - Are you together?

Old fingers touch a young girl's skin, unusual love or sin?

Tough leather slides on her velvety cover, never any other

Except stepfather gets her love

She's thirteen years old

He's got her in a cage of cold

Their sensitive relationship grows to great fears, transformed

To trouble and tears, every day when her head's on his shoulder

This fifty year man seems to be colder

Mother's pain, she wants to reveal what's going on in the family

One day in autumn sister shocked stepfather, me and

My mother when she gave her earthly life an end

His hair is grey, tender his words, he swears on her grave:

"No one will ever separate our love's heat, I'll meet you in heaven

Soon we shall be free". He trusted in this and in half a year

By his own oath he had disappeared

I feel you whisper - So far...
