Lyrics[]
Sangen om dig er aldrig forbi
Den vågner glad, når dagen begynder
Den som en sagte, blid melodi
Til mig nynner
Tusinde ting fra fjern eller nær
Sender mig bud med lokkende stemmer
Du er alene den, jeg har kær
Aldrig glemmer
Håbet kan briste og
Mennesker skuffe mig bitterligt, men
Sangen, den har jeg dog
Den tænder lys for mit livsmod igen
Sangen om dig, mit livs melodi
Nynner om alt, hvad du har mig givet
Sangen om dig er aldrig forbi
Thi for mig er du jo hele livet
Digterne skriver så mange
Gange om kærligheds magt
Men selv de dejligste sange
Får ikke alle ting sagt
Det, som er sorg eller glæde
Dybest i hjerterne bor
Om jeg vil le eller græde
Vil jeg høre en sang uden ord
Sangen om dig, mit livs melodi
Nynner om alt, hvad du har mig givet
Sangen om dig er aldrig forbi
Thi for mig er du jo hele livet
The song about you is never over
It wakes up happy when the day begins
It's as if a gentle and tender melody
Is humming to me
A thousand things from far and near
Are sending me messages with alluring voices:
You are the only one that I love
Never forget
Hope can burst apart and
People disappoint me bitterly, but
I've still got the song
That turns on a light again for my courage to face life
The song about you, the melody of my life
Is humming about everything that you've given me
The song about you is never over
Because you mean my whole life to me
Poets write so many
Times about the power of love
But even the most lovely song
Can't express everything
Whatever is sorrow or joy
Lives deep down in your heart
No matter if I smile or cry
I'll hear a song without words
The song about you, the melody of my life
Is humming about everything that you've given me
The song about you is never over
Because you mean my whole life to me
