Alexanderplatz [English translation]

And suddenly came the month of February

It was cold in that house

You repeated to me you know that in winter

one lives as well as in spring

Yes, yes, just like that

The custodian* returned from school

a little earlier in order to help me,

I see you're tired with bags under your eyes,

How do you find East Berlin?

Alexanderplatz* Auf wiedersehen*

It had snowed, I'll take a little walk

up to the border

I'm coming with you

And I always got home late in the evening

only my steps along the avenues

And I liked dusting, making the beds

and staying on the sidelines

Like a real princess

prisoner of her own film,

waiting for the angle like Marleene

You have bags under your eyes,

How do you like it in East Berlin?

Alexanderplatz Auf wiedersehen

It had snowed, we saw each other

This evening outside of the theatre

Do you like Schubert?
