Långsamt Farväl [English translation]

I wish i could say

that it is a phase we are going through

a storm we must cope and weather

I wish i could say

that we will make it together

that everything will sort itself out in the end

But how do you say to somebody

That this is where the road ends?

And how do you tell somebody

that the heart longs for freedom

I can not lie to you

you know me all too well

and when you look into my eyes

they tell you...

that we can only be the ones we are

so do not give me any reasons

because whatever we yet call it

it is only

a slow farewell

Here is your queen without a crown

listless and tired, a pitiful figure

who you have never really met

When i look over my shoulder

at the years that have just been passing

i see everything that was lost

but also everything that we got.

And what do you tell somebody

who wants to start over again

when it is already too late

when already on one's way

I can not lie to you

you know me all too well

and when you look into my eyes

they tell you...

that we can only be the ones we are

so do not give me any reasons

because whatever we yet call it

it is only

a slow farewell

i wash my hands, in the name of love

you can win it all, you lose sometimes

but the road we are travelling, it leads

it leads nowhere...

I can not lie to you

you know me all too well

and when you look into my eyes

they tell you...

that we can only be the ones we are

so do not give me any reasons

because whatever we yet call it

it is only

a slow farewell
