I have to confess your new guy
is quite okay
Still it's strange for me
To see you with him
Going for a drink
with (the two of) you at a party
hurts so much, so much
Or seing you and him together
there at the lake in the evening
For you it's no problem
But I can see our reflection
in the water
And it hurts so much
And often I also imagine
how you read what I'm writing
Whether you know what I mean
and understand the depth
When I write letters
that you will never get again
Not - because you don't read
but because I don't send them
and I don't say a word
because I'm not good at talking about love
And I don't have the right to say
if it's really right
And I can only tell you
that you are important to me
And I just want
you to be happy
And even though the years pass by
the feelings stay
And the anchor of my life is with you
And even though the years pass by
and the days are numbered
Still we look at each other like before
you were my safe haven
My lighthouse, my haven
You were my safe haven
My lighthouse, my haven
You were my safe haven
I have to confess I can understand
it's okay for you
I'd have to lie if I said
that you are not missed
Because every time when I
am almost dialing your number again
It hurts so much - so much
Or the moment when
the evening sun sets today
Will be crappy again
because I'll stand underneath it without you
And it hurts like salt
rubbed into open wounds
Yes it hurts so much
And often I also imagine
how you hear what I'm writing
You realise what I mean
and understand the main focus
When I'm writing songs
that you do not hear again
Because nobody hears them
And I have to say
this cage of memory fragments
Brings the soul to its limits
- what a bittersweet end
And it's hard to change our move
Because navigating on rails
is like braking without a parachute
And even though the years
pass by, the feelings stay
And my life's anchor is with you
Even though the years pass by
and the days are numbered
We still look at each other like before,
you were my safe haven
My lighthouse, my haven
You were my safe haven
My lighthouse, my haven
You were my safe haven
