Lyrics

Verse 1)
You see the good in every day,
with a smile that lights the way.
A heart as wide and free as the sea,
Karo, you’re all we need to be.

Elephants dancing in your dreams,
you paint the world in brighter schemes.
With Anja, Meggie, Gehli, Wiebke too,
on the tennis court, life shines through.

(Pre-Chorus)
And when the world has questions to send,
you’ve got the power to shine till the end.
We celebrate you, ’cause everyone knows,
you’re the light that forever glows.

(Chorus)
Happy Birthday, Karo, your star shines tonight,
we sing for you, you make the world bright.
For Karla and Paul, you’re the strongest of all,
your laughter’s the sweetest call.
And on the horizon, love’s shining on,
Wolfram’s with you, a brand-new song.
Karo, your star shines tonight,
forever young, forever light.

(Verse 2)
You teach with love, you lift the young,
and with you, every soul feels strong.
A bird that always soars so high,
you paint the colors in the sky.

We dream with you of far-off lands,
elephants walking in sunset sands.
And we are here, wherever you go,
’cause you’re the friend we’ll always know.

(Pre-Chorus)
And when the world has questions to send,
you’ve got the power to shine till the end.
We celebrate you, ’cause everyone knows,
you’re the light that forever glows.

(Chorus)
Happy Birthday, Karo, your star shines tonight,
we sing for you, you make the world bright.
For Karla and Paul, you’re the strongest of all,
your laughter’s the sweetest call.
And on the horizon, love’s shining on,
Wolfram’s with you, a brand-new song.
Karo, your star shines tonight,
forever young, forever light.

(Bridge)
Tonight the sea is dancing, the lights are near,
everything’s shining ’cause you’re here.
We’ll stand beside you all the way,
’cause you’re the song we want to play.

(Final Chorus)
Happy Birthday, Karo, your star shines tonight,
we sing for you, you make the world bright.
You’ll always be the sun in the sky,
the one who shows us how to fly.
And when you’re riding in the fading sun,
your life’s a song that’s just begun.
Karo, your star shines tonight –
forever young, forever light.
