Atem [English translation]

Who had a look inside my head

and built you from a dream of mine?

Your skin is cool and soft

your eyes resembling stars

and they look at me mockingly

as I’m incapable of sweet talk.

Sometimes I’d like to seduce you

to touch you merely with my glance

as you‘re so delicate.

And what I like to feel the most

before I get lost in a dream

is how you’re breathing.

Without you I am not much

like a broom without a stick

like a window without glass

like Mallorca without bars

like a bird without a nest

and so I hold fast onto you.

I feel protected by you

you are so beautiful as you sit here

and wait for me.

You don’t have to swear your love

I’d just like to hear forever

how you’re breathing.

I never picture how it’d be

were you gone for good one day

as that is too hard.

But if one day I should lose you

I will feel within my dreams

how you’re breathing.
