Joseph:
I closed my eyes, drew back the curtain
To see for certain what I thought I knew
Far far away, someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping
Any dream will do

Joseph & Kinder:
I wore my coat, with golden lining
Bright colors shining, wonderful and new
And in the east, the dawn was breaking
And the world was waking
Any dream will do

Joseph:
A crash of drums

Erz?hlerin:
A flash of light

Joseph:
My golden coat flew out of sight

Joseph & Erz?hlerin:
The colors faded into darkness I was left alone

Joseph & Erz?hlerin & Kinder:
May I return to the beginning
The light is dimming, and the dream is too
The world and I, we are still waiting
Still hesitating
Any dream will do

Alle:
May I return to the beginning
The light is dimming, and the dream is too
The world and I, we are still waiting
Still hesitating
Any dream will do
Give me my colored coat
My amazing colored coat
Give me my colored coat
My amazing colored coat
