Future Dreams/ Zukunftsträume/ Somnis De Futur (Catalán)/Sogni Futuri (Italian) Sentanka

Your future dreams Empty paper in your hands Disguised as desire Your words written in silence Until the last sunlight vanishes -------------------------------------- Deine Zukunftsträume Leeres Papier in deinen Händen Als Wunsch verkleidet Deine Worte in Stille geschrieben Bis das letzte Sonnenlicht verlöscht --------------------------------------- Seus somnis per al futur Blanc de paper a les seves mans Disfressat com un anhel Les teves paraules escrites en silenci Fins a la llum del sol extingit ------------------------------------------ I tui sogni per il futuro Foglio bianco nelle tui mani Travestito da un desiderio Le tue parole scritte nel silensio Fino al quando il sole si spegne ultimo Note: The Catalán version is for Ruben and the Italian one for Lisa-Marie and Charma
