Spieluhr (Music box) A little man - fakes his death [He] wanted to be all alone The little heart stood still for hours So they found him dead He is [without cermony] buried in wet sand With a music box in the hand The first snow covers the grave [It] has gently woke up the child On a cold winter's night Is the little heart awoken As the frost flows into the child The music box is wound up A melody in the wind And from the earth the child sings Up and down rider And no angel comes down My heart beats no longer Only the rain falls on the grave Up and down rider, A melody in the wind My heart beats no longer And from the earth the child sings The cold moon in full splendour Hears the cry in the night And no engel comes down here Only the rain falls on the grave Between hard oak boards It is playing with the music box A melody in the wind And from the earth the child sings Up and down rider And no angel comes down here My heart beats no longer Only the rain falls on the grave Up and down rider A melody in the wind My heart beats no longer And from the earth the child sings Up and down rider My heart beats no longer On Dead Sunday they hear From the cemetery this melody Then they unearth it To save the little heart in the child Up and down rider A melody in the wind My heart beats no longer And from the earth the child sings Up and down rider And no angel comes down here My heart beats no longer Only the rain falls on the grave Up and down rider A melody in the wind My heart beats no longer And from the earth the child sings!
