Sonne & Mond [English translation]

You lie next to me

and I can see it in your eyes what you want to see

You never stay here for long

Whenever I'm sleeping, your longing will get you

you say you have to go

Maybe we just turn in a circle

like two planets,

which never meet

Maybe it's time for me to understand

You're the sun, I'm the moon

We never shine together

we only glow alone

Oh, how beautiful was that time

We were lighter than weightless

We're like day and night

when you sleep, I stay awake

and I wonder when you'll be back

You're from another star

...

And then I'm next to you again

for a moment I notice there's still something burning inside me

But in the evening I go away

out into the night

Halfway around the world, but I can still see you from here

the horizon is my hiding place

Maybe we just turn in a circle

like two planets,

which never meet

Maybe it's time for me to understand

You're the sun, I'm the moon

We never shine together

we only glow alone

Oh, how beautiful was that time

We were lighter than weightless

We're like day and night

when you sleep, I stay awake

and I wonder when you'll be back

You're from another star

...

Even though I'm cold

I always stoke the fire

So you feel warmer

I'm there in the morning

It's not easy for me

but I know

Oh, I must go on

before I burn up

You're the sun, I'm the moon

We never shine together

we only glow alone

Oh, how beautiful was that time

We were lighter than weightless

We're like day and night

when you sleep, I stay awake

And I wonder when you'll be back

You're from another star
