Nur Bei Dir [English translation]

I wake up in a city,

Where, even at night, the fog doesn't clear.

Air conditioning's loud, double bed,

Spin me around in circles.

In front of the window, Science-Fiction - Hi-rises and lights.

I don't think of myself as a significant poet at all,

but I write and write and write,

until my hotel paper's all gone,

every thought from my head sits in a trap,

but I feel alone, kind of empty right now.

People running, smiling, coming from a concert.

(Only with you) I can be who I really am,

or who I used to be.

(Only with you) I can be

totally crazy or completely normal

(Only with you) I can be who I really am,

or who I used to be.

(Only with you) I can be

Totally crazy,

Completely normal, completely normal.

Window seat on the plane, but eyes still closed.

Boring, nothing happening, as if time dies in flight.

Thousands of pictures in my head, over half of them, you.

No luggage/suitcase, alone on the way,

but I'm not feeling free.

When I think about us both, it occurs to me, that I actually know nothing about life,

but the machine which I'm sitting in, is anything but feather-light.

We're landing safely,

but no one's clapping,

Shame, because this time it wouldn't have annoyed me at all.

(Only with you) I can be who I really am,

or who I used to be.

(Only with you) I can be

totally crazy or completely normal

(Only with you) I can be who I really am,

or who I used to be.

(Only with you) I can be

Totally crazy,

Completely normal, completely normal.

I wake up in a city,

Where, even at night, the fog doesn't clear.

Air conditioning's loud, double bed,

Spin me around in circles.
