Funkelperlenaugen [English translation]

In the hurdle race over a thousand ifs and buts

instead of straight to an unknown goal.

I'm in my own way again

Where is a place to rest in this game without borders?

I think too much about the day after tomorrow

Think too much about me,

I've changed my view to now and here and you

and you do this:

You fix me 1 with your sparkling pearly eyes,

It does me good, there's so much for me there.

It helps much more than any speech, any thought

Only feeling, only touching makes sense now.

The waves are almost closing over our heads

but with you in the boat I'll suffer any rough sea

The wind whips in my face again

but with you behind me it hurts half as much

Don't leave me alone with myself

Let me into you

I want to feel so much, you and now and here,

and what do you do?

You fix me with your sparkling pearly eyes,

It does me good, there's so much for me there.

It helps much more than any speech, any thought

Only feeling, only touching makes sense now.

It's like a balsam, like a real little miracle,

it heals much better than any medicine

Come and hold me

Hold me tight and squeeze me

as tight as you can

You fix me with your sparkling pearly eyes...
