Chancenlos [English translation]

She was the girl on the school yard

That nobody wrote letters to

The smile with braces

That always remained unrequited

Whose name is never mentioned

When they choose members for the sports team

Without a chance ...

One ribbon of many

Whose knot never holds

Whose bun almost every time

Fall on the side with the butter

Back then she wanted you

More than anything in the world

Without a chance ...

Life plays a game on time until it wins

Just when you scream and yell, it pretends to be blind

So many things you only get

When you don't need them anymore

Fate laughs at you, full of irony

It pulls you in and out, plays lottery

A silly teenager dream, now it becomes true

Why just now and not when she was sixteen?

Made up on Friday evening

Alone at home

Imagines companions

Call and take her out

One who has to practice

The first kiss with a pillow

Without a chance ...

You say you can remember

Overlooked her back then

Between all the rich kids

And the beauty queens

Back then she loved you

More than anything

Without a chance ...
