Melancholiker [English translation]

The tenth round just before five

and I am delirious

Even the last Casanovas* in town,

look around for a place to sleep.

And I just like it here,

because I see my kind of people here and there

But when the farewell knocks

and my heart is pounding, I know

here it isn't so bad

When the sun rises again

and time goes on,**

then I'm melancholy,

then I will become melancholy, yes.

When all my friends are in Hamburg

and for me, a new chapter begins,

then I'm melancholy

then I will become melancholy, yes.

The pubs and the bad restaurants,

I already had enough of them.

And the guys in front of my club doors

I could never stand them.

But when the time with you comes to an end,

the insight comes a little late.

But when the farewell knocks

and my heart is pounding, I know

It is not so bad here.

When the sun rises again

and time goes on,

then I'm melancholy

then I will become melancholy, yes.

When all my friends are in Hamburg

and for me, a new chapter begins,

then I'm melancholy,

then I will become melancholy, yes.
