Lyrics:

Sweet little words made for silence
no' talk young heart for love
not heartache...
Dark hair for catching the wind..
Not to veil the sight of a cold world ,
Kiss while your lips are still red
While he's still silent
Rest
while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool..
Drown into eyes while they're still blind...
Love while the night still hides
the withering dawn..
First day of love never comes back..
A passionate hour's never a wasted one..
The violin, the poet's hand
Every thawing heart plays your theme with care..
Kiss while your lips are still red..
While he's still silent
Rest
while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they're still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn
Kiss while your lips are still red..
While he's still silent
Rest while bosom is still untouched, unveiled
Hold another hand while the hand's still without a tool
Drown into eyes while they're still blind
Love while the night still hides the withering dawn
