You lost your heart in Heidelberg
An angel there they made
She loved a man, a man called Franz
But now Death must be paid

You lost your heart in Heidelberg
A wolf it ripped it out
And Death said Franz, give her away
When death it is about

You lost your heart in Heidelberg
You tried hard to be strong
Sometimes Franz you get it bad
And you get it wrong

You lost your heart in Heidelberg
But pussy-cat’s now dead
And Death now lectures you
The rules now are read

Everything has its time
Planting and decaying
Being born and dying
Searching and losing
Tearing apart and sewing together
Everything has its time

You lost your heart in Heidelberg
And he loved you so
You’re sad, so very sad
But now it’s time to go
