Die Liebe lässt mich nicht [English translation]

I woke up this morning

and didn't know what for

I opened my eyes

and nobody lay beside me

I feel completely lifeless

even though my heart is still beating

Like this house I'm cold and empty

because half of it is missing

I've sworn to myself to manage

as good as possible

now look at me, I'm worth nothing anymore

like a heart that only beats out of pity

How can a person only be so cold

does it not concern you at all?

you give a shadow

I cannot overcome

And I don't know

what shall I look for,

which path shall I take

why can't I forget?

It has to be possible...1

Tell me

what else has to happen

until you mean nothing to me

I'd like to hate you

but love does not let me

love does not let me

I didn't want to think about you anymore

believe me, I've tried

Wanted to drown you2 in wine

But as you can see it didn't work

I wanted to end it here

but years cannot just be erased

they say time heals all wounds

but to me time tears them open again

And I don't know

what shall I look for,

which path shall I take

why can't I forget?

It has to be possible...1

Tell me

what else has to happen

until you mean nothing to me

I'd like to hate you

but love does not let me

love does not let me

How low do I have to go

until I wake up without you3

How many days have to drown

until also the last picture dulls

and I manage to start afresh

tell me when,

tell me when

tell me how long...

What else has to happen

until you mean nothing to me

I'd like to hate you

but love does not let me

love does not let me
