ONLY REMINISCING song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

based on a translation of a couple of poems
in WINTERREISE by Wilhelm Muller

Through the mountains deep and wide
pixie fire made me fall
but the fear of not escaping
doesn't worry me at all

up and down I'm afraid
out or in it's all the same
all our joy and all our sorrow
I've only me to blame

now it's only reminiscing
wanna go back just once more
to stagger backwards through the past
stand before your open door

I'm around the rocky cliffs
take me down I'm not afraid
Every river leads to the ocean
Every grief leads to the Grave

now it's only reminiscing
I wanna go back just once more
stagger backwards through the past
stand before your open door

now it's only reminiscing
I wanna go back just once more
stagger backwards through the past
to stand before your open door

“Stagger backwards,” leads me to believe that this would be a great song for someone to sing in a bar room. Later, the melody could be used and the lyrics modified to be acceptable as a classic hymn. ;-)
