[Verse 1: Bart van der Weide]
The old man returns to a woman in love
Old man yearns for her feminine touch
The old man believes he still got a lot to give
But when he wakes, doesn’t mean as much
[Chorus: Jeroen van Koningsbrugge & Bart van der Weide]
Why does the world still look beautiful?
Why does the rain still soothe my skin?
It’s everything and it’s nothing at all
When there’s no love left behind to live for
[Verse 2: Jeroen van Koningsbrugge]
Old woman left with the hero still inside
Old woman smiles because the good inside won’t lie
Old woman knows there’s so much more
But now she learned, with love you don’t die poor
[Chorus: Jeroen van Koningsbrugge & Bart van der Weide]
From up above, the world’s still beautiful
That’s why the rain still soothes my skin
It’s everything and it’s nothing at all
There’s no one left behind to care for
[Bridge: Jeroen van Koningsbrugge & Bart van der Weide]
Oh, to care for
Oh, to care for
If it makes no sense
No, it makes no sense at all
I try to make some sense
No, no, no, and…
[Verse 3: Bart van der Weide & Jeroen van Koningsbrugge]
Old man returned to his woman in love
Old woman smiles, now it’s finally enough
[Chorus: Bart van der Weide & Jeroen van Koningsbrugge]
Why does the world still look beautiful?
Why does the rain still soothe my skin?
It’s not enough, it means nothing at all
There’s so much left behind, yeah
You left so much love behind, yeah
