So schön anders [English translation]

You are building a house, I'm hiking

You are pouring the ground, I'm throwing the anchor

You put white doves on my panzers*

You are like me but so beautifully different

If the sun is shining I put you in shade

You give me your light at night

We put on headphones

And stand on skyscrapers

If you are tired I blanket you

If I'm upset you hold me tight

We build a station on the moon

And fly even further

You are like me

But so beautifully different

You are like me

But so beautifully different

You are the jungle for my panther

You are dreaming of Sylt, I bring you to Sri Lanka

In front of your freedom fighters I'm like an officer

You are like me but so beautifully different

If the sun is shining I put you in shade

You give me your light at night

We put on headphones

And stand on skyscrapers

When you are tired I blanket you

If I'm upset you hold me tight

We build a station on the moon

And fly even further

You are like me

But so beautifully different

You are like me

But so beautifully different

We rush in Plough

Through the Milky Way past the Big Bang

We shine like the stars in infinite distance

Through cosmic nebula to the very beginning of time

You are like me (you are like me, so beautifully different)

But so beautifully different (you are like me, so beautifully different)

You are like me (you are like me, so beautifully different)

But so beautifully different (you are like me, so beautifully different)
