Home, the family home is gone
Time from mother's hands takes us into the unknown
We regret these four walls, where we have lived through so much
But there the world waits and love calls us

From the old record the music returns
Vibrates in the strings like tears in the eyes
And the world spins like an old record
Draws in the memory a picture of those days

From the old record the melody flows
Like a silent movie someone plays the piano
Let's drown our worries in red wine
For once you live and once you love

Like a film frame I'm watching my life again
But the melody of the green years will not return
After my mother's love I met another love
Today like a beautiful poem I repeat it
I repeat it every day

Like a film frame I'm watching my life again
But the melody of green years will not return
I met another love after my mother's
Today like a beautiful poem I repeat it every day

From the old record the music returns
Vibrates in the strings like tears in the eyes
And the world spins like an old record
The years are made up of nights and days

You have to be careful with an old record
It'll break like a heart, there'll be nothing left
It's the same with our love
It goes by like a chorus from an old record
