Was Besonderes [English translation]

I don't actually want to be away for very long

A kink in perspective, a scratch in time

Randomly, you run into me

As though we'd been expecting it

I'd just been thinking about you, now you're calling me by name

If something doesn't happen today,

That'd be ridiculous

I believe it's happening again

Leap onto the tiles, against the lines

As if there's something in the way

Which I cannot envisage

I did have my suspicions

Now there's just loose threads

When will I understand it?

Do I ever want to?

I exist and suddenly I realise

It is something special to be

And I stand next to myself and it suddenly becomes clear

It is something very special, special

Sometimes I think it can't be real

A kink in perspective, a scratch in time

Nothing goes to plan but everything goes

As though we'd placed a bet upon it

I'll only be saved if chance really works

Man, that really would be, really would be bloody ridiculous

I remember and suddenly I realise

That's something very special to be

I'm here and don't want to go anywhere else

That seems to be something special, special

And in the middle of it all, it suddenly occurs to me

Even that seems to be something very special

The solution suddenly comes to me

But the search seems to the special thing among it

I exist and suddenly I realise

It is something special to be

I have needs and don't need to be anywhere else

That seems to be something special, special

And I stand next to myself and it suddenly becomes clear

Even that seems to be something special

And then I'm happy and I don't even know why

Then that's something very special, special
