Still in Luft
Language: German (Deutsch)
Still in Luft Es gebart, Aus dem Duft Hebt sichs zart, Liebchen ruft, Liebster schweift Durch die Luft; Sternwärts greift, Seufzt und ruft, Herz wird bang, Matt wird Duft, Zeit wird lang -- Mondscheinduft, Luft in Luft Bleibt Liebe und Liebste, wie sie gewesen!
