Der Himmel wartet noch
“Der Himmel wartet noch” (Heaven Is Still Waiting) is a soulful German pop-ballad song about dreams, freedom, and the courage to fulfill one's heart's desires, even later in life.
Inspired by a real hot air balloon ride over the Namib Desert, the song tells of the unique silence of sunrise, the endless expanse of the dunes, and the special moment when everyday life fades below, and only the sky, freedom, and life matter.
With its emotional melody, "Der Himmel wartet noch" invites listeners to follow their own dreams – because it's never too late for new adventures.
Written and composed for Jede Seite ein Abenteuer, this song stands for wanderlust, hope, and the conviction that every day can write a new story.
Songtext:
The desert still sleeps under stars,
No sound breaks the morning's peace.
Only a flame carries hope,
And slowly the balloon lifts itself.
The first sunbeam on the horizon,
Golden light on red sand.
For a moment, everything stands still,
As if heaven were taking my hand.
No hurry, no turning back,
Only the wind knows our destination.
Some dreams wait quietly,
Until the heart finally desires them.
Heaven is still waiting,
For everyone who can still dream.
No matter how many years
Have already passed sometime.
Heaven is still waiting,
If your heart keeps its courage.
Sometimes the greatest adventure begins
With a single balloon ride.
Far beneath us, the red dunes,
Shadows dance silently in the light.
No engine disturbs the big dreams,
Only the wind tells stories.
I see freedom in the distance,
I see life anew before me.
Not every dream needs wings –
Sometimes heaven carries you.
And when we land safely again,
The first sparkling wine is already waiting.
Laughter between sand and sun,
A moment that lasts forever.
It's not the altitude that creates memories,
The destination alone doesn't count.
It's the moments along the way,
That stay with us forever.
Heaven is still waiting,
For everyone who doesn't lose courage.
Because dreams have no clock,
They wait until the heart feels them.
Heaven is still waiting,
Over Namibia in the morning light.
And whoever has been up there once,
Will not forget this magic.
Heaven is still waiting...
Come, make peace with your dreams.
Because every journey begins right there,
Where you dared to take the first step
