Glück [English translation]

The film begins with "I'm looking for true love"

And I've paid for it with my peace since I was fifteen

Scars on my heart since the death of my Munich girl

Invisible shield around my neck for my future

ex-girlfriends: "Fine yourselves someone sensible instead!"

Repeat offenders repeat mistakes as a rule

New love begins when the old love stops hurting

In a February that was awful, like every year,

The bar window threw warm gold against the rainy day

Where we were talking inside

Until I forgot that I had already fucked up too many times

But the chair that I sit on is not just a chair this time

But rather the chair next to Günther Jauch: the chair

Of the guy who made a million¹

Get the DeLorean, let's back up

We only ever meant each other when we said "happiness"

The best things come in the smallest amounts

We only ever meant each other when we said "happiness"

Back home, at the harbor, waiting for our ship

We only ever meant each other when we said "happiness"

When everything's destroyed, I'll stay here, I'll stay with you, you with me

When nothing else is left, the We remains.

We don't believe in much, just that "love lasts forever"

Like in films, where the good guys never miss a shot

While the world separates, as we're used to

You make us pancakes in the morning in my old shirt

We listen to my records, almost all the singers dead

I only wear old band shirts, Stones, Beatles and Ramones

We lie in front of the laptop, starting series together

Being with you for a lifetime suddenly sounds very bearable

So many friends are in love with being in love

They talk about true love, but that's not enough for us

They want as many women as possible

But every morning I see anew how beautiful you are

Even in the confines of this stuffy little town

We play our kissing scenes on enormous screens

Wherever we are, bars mark the edge of the sceen

We continued when everything on the set stood still

The camera was already out, we never read the script

It's likely nobody but us will understand our new ending

We get in the car, laughing that we ran away

They should take their Hollywood down behind us

Get the DeLorean, let's back up

We only ever meant each other when we said "happiness"

The best things come in the smallest amounts

We only ever meant each other when we said "happiness"

Back home, at the harbor, waiting for our ship

We only ever meant each other, when we said "happiness"

When everything's destroyed, I'll stay here, I'll stay with you, you with me

When nothing else is left, the We remains.

We only ever meant each other, when we said "happiness" (3x)

When everything's destroyed, I'll stay here, I'll stay with you, you with me

When nothing else is left, the We remains.
