Sprachlos [English translation]

Like a sailor without a harbor

Like a ship that slowly sinks

Like a smile which is distant

That was me behind the walls

And I built barricades

A soldier never falls

Tell me; how did you get through the walls

Uninvited in my world

Now I’m standing here

I don’t know what I should say

Not a word from me

I’m speechless

And I give up all my weapons

And I fall to my knees

The soldier gave himself up

And he sings a different tune

One of hope and fear and love

One of extended loneliness

And I wished you could have heard it

It is lovely and it’s light

Now I’m standing here

I don’t know what I should say

Not a word from me

I’m speechless, speechless

I give all my weapons up

‘Cause I have no need for them

You make me speechless

I don’t need to be a winner

Winners still stand alone

And I am speechless

You make me speechless

Like a sailor without a harbor

Like a ship that slowly sinks

Like a smile which is distant

That was me behind the walls

Now I’m standing here

I don’t know what I should say

Not a word from me

I’m speechless, speechless

Now I’m standing here

(I’m standing here)

Not a word from me

This life, this life

This life is just wonderful

With you
