The curtain fell silently to the ground
And I stood mute, wrapped in ice
Silently you went down the stairs
Looking down without looking back
Was it all here and now?
Were these words your final chord?
Seeking in vain the solution for us
Found so much, but she was not there
And so I stood for a long time
I just couldn't understand
What happened?
With me, with me alone, a fire was burning, but there was no light
Through you, through you, I've tried, but I could not forget you
With me, with me, alone with me, introduced me as you kiss me
Through you, through you, I stood in flames, was alone without you, with you
Like in purgatory, without ceiling and floor
Locked in the deepest nowhere
There was no bottom and unfortunately no top
I could think of it, the mood so times
Wanted to be close, wanted to feel you
Don't stand with your back to the wall
Could look, but find you nowhere
The uncertainty was hardly to be overcome
And so I stood for a long time
I just could not understand
What happened?
