it was a cold and lonely night
when the car crushed down
down in the river
and a spark of live went out
the boy inside lost his fight
against the coldness
and it`s hard for me to believe
that it was you

hey my friend
you had to sail over this ocean
of tears undryable
i can`t believe you`re gone now
my mind`s filled up with distortion
may god take you safely in his arms

now time has healed the wound
deep in my soul
but a scar is left
and makes the pain behold
i`ll never forget
the look in your parents eyes
may the lord dry their tears
and lead them through this life

hey my friend...

i have to realize life goes on
may the memory never stop
at the end there stays this question: why ?
this is my last goodbye

hey my friend...
