You packed your bags to live in the forest

Way south in Bavaria

You left the coast and the ones you spend your youth with

Your roots drew you to that area

Your friends could hardly handle the distance

And you patiently waited tell it hurt

It took some years tell one of your invitations

Had a familiar face talkin' all this shit

What was sold in your youth

Won't wither and dry

What was moving in your youth

Will never completely die

What was sold in your youth

Won't wither and dry

What was moving in your youth

Will never completely die

Your wooden house exists in my imagination

I wish I could see it with my own eyes

You've found  a woman, and you wrote me letters

The name you gave your daughter made me cry

What was sold in your youth

Won't wither and dry

What was moving in your youth

Will never completely die

What was sold in your youth

Won't wither and dry

What was moving in your youth

Will never completely die

What was sold in your youth

Won't wither and dry

What was moving in your youth

Will never completely die

What was sold in your youth

Won't wither and dry

What was moving in your youth

Will never completely die
