Schönste Zeit [English translation]

It was only you and me out there

Big fields and lakes but not much more.

It was 1994 and we didn't know where to go

So we went to your bed.

And we shared our Walkman

The first beer, my scooter, and frustration.

The moon was in the window of the night bus

The first kiss was like strawberry punch and spit

Like a Polaroid in the rain: A bit blurry.

That was the most beautiful time

Because everything started there.

And Berlin was like New York

A place miles away.

And your tears were kohl

On the day that Kurt Cobain died, you lay in my arms

That was the most beautiful time

Because everything started there.

Your first tattoo was the chorus:

"It's better to burn out than to fade away - my my, hey hey"

And I bought myself a Neil Young and Nirvana shirt.

When you moved away later, I broke down secretly.

I played guitar constantly

Cried on paper.

You were a Polaroid in the rain

And my first song.

That was the most beautiful time

Because everything started there.

And Berlin was like New York

A place miles away.

And your tears were kohl

On the day that Kurt Cobain died, you lay in my arms

That was the most beautiful time

Because everything started there.

Hey hey, my my

What we can't do

Is repeat something

No instant, no moment

Can ever be repeated.

What we can't do

Is repeat something

We can't go back

And why should we?

That was the most beautiful time

Because everything started there.

And Berlin was like New York

A place miles away.

And your tears were kohl

On the day that Kurt Cobain died, you lay in my arms

That was the most beautiful time

Because everything started there.

Oh whatever, nevermind

Dreamed about you last night

And about the beautiful time

There where everything began.
