Fairy lady who stands on the walls Life is short and wait is long The stars, away, dim with the dawn Fairy lady who stands on the walls Your tale has only begun It comes from far, the Nowhereland The wind is blowing a sound well known Fairy lady, your love is long gone Oh darling, hear my soul and heed my cry 'Cause all my crying may flood a river in my heart Oh, life is good Oh, life is good Oh, life is good As good as you wish Oh, my darling Now I cannot halt my cries And I'm alone here To mend the pieces of my heart Little lady, your tale has an end For your love to skies was sent He's turned into sparks that shine with the stars And by night he will always be there For his lady to stare And thus he's never died
