Louise Lyrics in English Eisblume

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Louise by Eisblume from German to English.
They were in love
And almost still kids
Eternity away and still so near
He carried her picture
In his soul
Nobody will understand
What then happened at the sea
Louise my heart
You're so beautiful
The roses want to wither when they see you
Louise my heart
You must understand
Only without you will our love last
Time slips away
The leaves fall
Night drifts in
Day without return
A shadow approaches
Darkens the whole world
Erases your steps
Takes you along
You away
Louise my heart
Where do you want to go?
The water carries us now into the morning light
Louise so cold
And it grows still
Cradled by the infinity of the moment
He's here
He's here
Louise my heart
Don't forgive me
The world stops
Doesn't want to keep turning
Louise and yet
The guilt strikes you
I let you go
Yet you don't leave me
Waves over me
Reach for us full of greed
No word, no path brings you back
Louise my heart
Now come to rest
With my tears we cover ourselves
Me and you
Me and you

SONG MEANING

Picture a windswept coastline at twilight. Two teenagers fall in love so deeply that it feels timeless, yet their innocence makes the future seem impossibly far away. The boy carries the girl’s image “in his soul,” a poetic hint that their bond is more spiritual than physical. But when they reach the sea, something unexplained shatters the magic. He insists that only distance can preserve their love, a heartbreaking contradiction that sets up the tragedy to come.

From that moment, the lyrics spiral into themes of guilt, loss, and the haunting power of memory. Night swallows day, waves crash overhead, and time itself seems to freeze as he watches Louise disappear. He begs her not to forgive him; he feels responsible for letting her go even though she “never truly leaves” him. In the end, they are united only by tears and the silent, endless moment between life and death. “Louise” is a dramatic ballad about young passion confronted by fate, showing how love can feel eternal even while slipping through our fingers like water.
