Dochters [English translation]

Quarter past seven on Sunday morning

I'm hearing a voice asking me very softly

Are you already awake, dad?

Are you coming downstairs?

Do you have to work later on or are you free today?

And will you then go out with me for a little while?

Ohhh, time goes so fast

Only yesterday I saw her for the first time, she layed here in my arms

She is so beautiful and time looks so good on her

I blink my eyes and see how she's changed a little everytime

But no matter how big/old she may be

In my eyes she will always remain little

Quarter past seven on Sunday morning

I'm hearing the front door opening very quietly

And I fall asleep in peace, she is home

I prefered to pick her up myself, but she had asked me not to go stand there

In the meantime she knows the way home

And ohhh, time goes so fast

Only yesterday I saw her for the first time, she layed here in my arms

She is so beautiful and time looks so good on her

I blink my eyes and see how she's changed a little everytime

But no matter how big/old she may be

In my eyes she will always remain little

And sometimes, when I close my eyes for a little while

We walk together on the beach,

Her little hand in mine

And then, she stops time for a while

It is again like it used to be for a second

And she needs me again

I'm holding hold her

Like she was

I'm holding her

Quarter past seven on Sunday morning

She hears my voice waking her softly

Today it's your big day

She is so beautiful and time looks so good on her

I blink my eyes and see how her heart no belongs to someone else forever

But wherever she may be

In mind she is here with me

In my eyes she will always remain little
