Allusions on a double Dimple

www.dimple.de

I don't care for the Dimple drink, but I Do care for the early German progressive rock band Triumvirat!
One of the first "rock" recordings I ever listened to was Triumvirat's Spartacus album - it's still woven into my fibers.
(Note that Triumvirat is not singing and rhyming in their native language - I can see some Germanisms poking through.)

To find a friend is not as easy as to pour a drink
But even harder is to separate the good from those that stink

To realize this you spent years a little scared, sometimes with tears
You will find out you're still the same, and all those left, the ones to blame

Old loves die hard, and I can't help it, but it's tearing me apart

So what is left for you is just to heal the scars of hate
It seems a waste to try to teach an old dog newer tricks

If love appears to be a crime, if hate is hip, to cheat is fine
Just let me know, 'cause I'll take off
I hate to hate, I want to love

Old loves die hard, and I can't help it, but it's tearing me apart

Old loves die hard; they're far from good, and they are only good from far

You create a mediocre heart-attack to find the clue for right and wrong
A single word sometimes has more effect to state a point of view
That could make your weakness strong

Old loves die hard and I can't help itbut it's tearing me apart
Old loves die hard; they're far from good, and they are only good from far
Don't hide your heart - New love will start
