People call me the idol of youth.
Some even envy me
But they don't know
That sometimes I get bored.

I'm looking for the one that would be mine.
But how can I find her?
Time goes by, time carries me along
I'm just passing through.

In the night I rush alone from town to town.
I'm just a stone that keeps on rolling.
I have fortune and more and my name all over the street.
Yet I'm simply looking for love.

More than one girl is often lurking
When the spotlight goes out.
Suddenly they throw themselves at me
But not one in my heart.

In the night I rush alone from town to town.
I'm just a rolling stone.
I've got to laugh and dance and then the show's over.
I have to go somewhere else at dawn.

People call me the idol of youth.
Some even envy me
But if they could only know
How lonely I am in my life,
How lonely I am.
