Ein Brief [English translation]

When you get home in a minute

there'll be a letter from me

Open it and think about it

It's nobody's fault, and it's not up to you

The entire day I've tried

to understand myself

I run around like crazy in our apartment

and look for memories, desperately

'Cause my heart it knows that it is time

Time for me and time for you, too

I've never been this far away from you

Here am I and where are you

Talking about you and me

I want to, and I don't want to

Summer, winter after a long night

I've been thinking about it for so long

I'm standing outside your door

I imagine that you're not here

The great love can't conquer all

We're looking at each other; I have to go nonetheless

'Cause my heart it knows that it is time

Time for me and time for you, too

I've never been this far away from you

Here am I and where are you

It's getting dark slowly

Now we've been sitting here for hours

The great love can't conquer all

No going back

Loose no word and no time

'Cause my heart it knows that it is time

Time for me and time for you, too

I've never been this far away from you

Here am I and where are you

'Cause my heart it knows that it is time

Time for me and time for you, too

I've never been this far away from you

Here am I and where are you
