Marlene

We will always remember
That 'Leonardo smile'.
With a glance blue eyes
Could touch your soul.
Sweetheart of America,
Child of Germany.
Dreaming all the while
Of coming home.
And for you, Marlene
War is over,
And the stormy rains
No longer fall.
Stars appear and fade away,
Legends never die.
You were the greatest of them all.

Distant days of cabaret,
The heartaches and the fights.
Time you had to hide away your tears.
Heady years in Hollywood,
And those long Parisienne nights.
No-one there to take away your tears.

But for you, Marlene
War is over,
And the stormy rains
No longer fall.
Stars appear and fade away,
Legends never die.
You were the greatest of them all.

Auf wiedersehen Marlene.
