The world is so cold,
so empty, so bare,
so bitter and gray
without sunny skies fair

But those skies have long gone,
they left along with you,
all the joy you brought to me
has now vanished too

The world is so cold,
like a stone, gone all numb
too dark to see where I'm going
or where I've come from

Where is my sunshine,
where is my light?
where is my heart?
when will my world be right?

Where is the warmth
that once filled up my soul?
Now all I have
is this harsh, empty cold.

It was a warm day before we parted,
now we're never to meet again
and I wish for the blue skies
that above us once spread

Now it is gone,
with the warmth and the light
with the joy and the hope
and now it is night

because you were my sunshine
my sunshine bright and bold
and now that you are gone away,
the world has gone so cold.

... But someday it will be dawn again,
for heaven has made it so,
the skies wil be bright and blue at last,
and nevermore shall I be cold.
