Nachts, wenn alles schläft [English translation]

It's late, you have to go

How time flies being with you

Walk home through the park

And nobody will know you've been with me

Though it may be so wonderful

Every time you're with me

I know

Without you

It's gonna be so much worse

Oh baby...

At night, when everything's asleep

You should be with me

(I need you close to me)

But you're with him

And I'm here all alone

(How rarely we see one another)

The one you belong to

You don't belong with him

(You're my love after all)

For what you really feel

Is a testimony against that

(You're my love after all)

At night

When everything's asleep

You should be with me

(I need you close to me)

For you keep living on inside me

Even though you leave me alone

Oh baby...

Call him

Tell him you're gonna stay with me

And you're not coming back

You're gonna have to make that decision one day

You're gonna see

It's not really that hard

It was over between the two of you

Even before there were the two of us

You were so young back then

Or he just wasn't the right man

Oh baby...

At night, when everything's asleep ...

[repeat]
