SUMMARY
“Lunapark” is a tragic love story set against the backdrop of war. A soldier meets his beloved at a fairground, their brief but powerful connection becoming his only source of hope amidst the horrors of battle. Longing to return to her, he deserts the war but is fatally wounded, leaving his promise to reunite at Lunapark unfulfilled. The song blends romance, loss, and haunting memory into a poignant ballad of love cut short by fate.

(Intro piano only)
There I met you at Lunapark
Ghosts are howling through the dark
I tried to give you shelter
You tried to give me love
’t was not enough to survive
But love we tried
Ye we tried
(V1)
Me being a soldier on my way to war
Only days away from the cannon’s roar
I saw the bright lights of a nearby fair ground
I stepped inside
Feeling full of live
(Chorus 1)
And there I met you at Lunapark
Eyes bright like the stars that touched my heart
Two souls clung to each other
We knew it from the start
We had to meet again
At Lunapark
Lunapark
(V2)
We had to part I nearly went insane
Never knew if we would meet again
If I’d survive
The trenches carnage
I closed my eyes and I saw only you
(Chorus 2)
The day I met you at Lunapark
The shells kept on howling through the dark
I swore that if I ever
Saw the light again
I’d run the whole way back
To Lunapark
Lunapark
(Interlude)
Every day and night I dreamt of you at Lunapark
Every single day I cursed this pointless war
Every night I felt you waiting down at Lunapark
I could no longer take it
So I dropped my gun and tried to make it
(Chorus 3)
Back to where we met at Lunapark
The bullit pierced my back and slashed my heart
The last thing I remembered
Eyes bright like the stars
I promise to return to Lunapark
To Lunapark
(Instrumental strings)
Your memory is calling me back
Every night and day
And though you see can’t me my love
I’ll be there
To stay
(Outro piano only)
You’re still wandering through Lunapark
The carousels long gone
But not your love
I watch you from the shadows
Tears in your pale eyes
Once bright just like the stars
Over Lunapark
Lunapark
Lunapark
