Tell me the meaning of life
Hide from me the shadow from your humble childhood
The soft spot in your heart
The ambition that drives you around
the book you want to write
Tell me the meaning of life
The moment he walked in with golden sunshine
The moment he saw you in the crowd
His head turned to the side
You saw sorrow in his eyes
Tell me the meaning of life
Over a glass of wine
With her sitting there in a fine dress
glittering necklace around her neck
You remembered your childhood friend
with whom you dreamed about better life
Tell me the meaning of life
The day a poor old man died
leaving all his struggles and pain
Of all the things he was deprived
Tell me, the meaning of life
