Ich wünsche mir ein Feuer [English translation]

The city is grey and heavy,

The walls come closer.

I could shed tears

And yet find no reason.

The sky pushes the clouds

Down to us.

Rain pounds the window.

I would like so much to be with you.

I wish for a fire

Burning in my heart,

Shining more brightly than everything

My routine knows.

I wish for a fire

Setting my heart free,

Warming me and touching me

For all time.

I wish for a fire.

Quietness cradles the night,

But waiting changes nothing.

Seconds drift like cold.

I see your face in shadows.

I stare into space

Through moist window glass.

I close my eyes

And then you are here.

(x2)

I wish for a fire

Burning in my heart,

Shining more brightly than everything

My routine knows.

I wish for a fire

Setting my heart free,

Warming me and touching me

For all time.

Small things are valuable.

Time teaches us the past.

The onoly thing that matters

Is not to be alone.

I wish for a fire

Burning in my heart,

(x2)

I wish for a fire

Burning in my heart,

Shining more brightly than everything

My routine knows.

I wish for a fire

Setting my heart free,

Warming me and touching me

For all time.
