Immer wenn es dunkel wird [English translation]

I erased you

Instead of forgetting you

Your note on the fridge

Well I ate it

It was a long time ago

It has long been time to go

But your idea of love

No longer causes me hurt

I can look to the future

I’ve got my heart back

That’s all I wanted to tell you

But you pushed me away

As though I were a stranger

As though I were anyone else

But when you want to say it

It’s hard to find the words

But what are you supposed to say

When you lose the most important thing

I can’t go on acting like none of this is happening

Like none of this is happening ...

Whenever it gets dark

When everything falls to pieces

I finally realise

That we had something good

The flags fall down

I rip the window open

My hair hurts

I block out the ghosts

I don’t want to think any more

I want a new start

But my thoughts hang stuck

In old never ending circles

But what is there left to want

When you lose the most important thing

I can’t go on acting like none of this is happening

Like none of this is happening ...

Whenever it gets dark

When everything falls to pieces

I finally realise

That we had something good going

Whenever it gets quieter

And I’ve nothing left to do

That’s when it hurts

And I realise

That we had something good

The ghosts come from every corner

And waking me again and again

And I think of you

Yes I think of you

The ghosts come from every corner

To scare me again and again

And I think of you

Yes I think of you

Whenever it gets quieter

And nothing occupies my mind

That’s when it hurts

And I realise

We had something good

Which will never come again

Which will never come again

Which will never come again
