Eine Nacht in Ewigkeit [English translation]

Nothing except one word

Lights up the night

Our hearts shine

In the deepest of longings

And our souls

Fall into this splendor

Secluded it blinds me

Entice me - flow through me

You're streaming light - Do you illuminate me?

Out of the stillness - out of nothing

Dipped into me

Receive me tonight...

Has the reason [the gag of reason]

Not protected me

Now, engulfed in the drink

We merge to bleed

Sacrifice we are the culprit and

Storming our addiction for nearness

Through flesh and space

Through time and desire

Through sweat and addiction

Through me into you

Entice me - flow through me

Stream through me

Enlighten me!

Out of the stillness - out of nothing

Dipped into me

Receive me tonight...

And when I touch

Your body until every cell feels it

And when I ensnare you

Your nakedness around it

I feel mine it is moist

And when we lose ourselves

Only together and forever this

Night give ourselves to one another

And when the shadows fall

Both of your lips I at last

Kiss sinking completely into the deep

And when I touch

Your body until every cell feels it

And when I ensnare you

Your nakedness around it

I feel mine it is moist

And when we lose ourselves

Only together and forever this

Night give ourselves to one another

And when the shadows fall

Both of your lips I at last

Kiss sinking completely into the deep

A night in eternity

And so are we forever united

And beauty rocks us

finally to sleep...
