Duett [English translation]

I got a letter

A real letter with a stamp

A postcard from long ago

When the future was ours

And how you wrote

Of your search for freedom

Words winged like a butterfly

And I believe that I understand

That slowly, slowly, oh so slowly

So you won your nights back

slowly, slowly, oh so slowly,

So we glided into oblivion where the light is weak

That which was you and me

I wrote a letter

About living with the curse

I gave you my version of the truth

To get you to understand

That slowly, slowly, oh so slowly

So we won our nights back

slowly, slowly, oh so slowly,

So we glided into the memory, hidden far back

That which was you and me

That slowly, slowly, oh so slowly

So we were our nights back

slowly, slowly, oh so slowly,

So we glided into oblivion where the light is weak

That which was you and me
