Er steht im Regen [English translation]

He is standing in the rain, before her window.

There was still light until a moment ago.

He’s been standing here for one hour and a half

waiting. She doesn’t wait.

He looks up to her, in the lantern light

she sees that his heart almost breaks.

But her thoughts are far away.

He is hoping she’ll come, but she doesn’t.

And the rain wipes the tears from his face.

She doesn’t come.

She doesn’t come.

She doesn’t come.

And he waits and waits all through the night,

until daybreak.

But she doesn’t come.

She doesn’t come.

She doesn’t come.

It was rumoured that she's got another one.

There’s a painful jab in his heart.

She doesn’t come into the light, prefers to stay in the dark.

She sees him, he doesn’t see her.

He wants to do everything, wants to forgive everything,

doesn’t want her to promise him anything.

She turns away, leaving him alone.

He loves her. She doesn’t love him.

And the rain wipes the tears from his face.

She doesn’t love him.

She doesn’t love him.

And he waits and waits all through the night,

until daybreak.

But she doesn’t love him,

doesn’t love him,

doesn’t love him.

Life just isn’t always fair,

for one of them loves the other

always just a little bit more.

And the rain wipes the tears from his face.

She doesn’t wait.

She doesn’t come.

She doesn’t love him.

And he waits and waits all through the night,

until daybreak.

But she doesn’t come,

for she doesn’t love him anymore,

and he loves her so much.
