So silent,
that each of us knew that this time it’s -
forever,
forever and a lifetime, then it was
so silent,
that each of us were suspecting
there isn’t a word for this
that can ever describe this feeling
So silent,
That all the clocks fell silent ¹
yes, time came to a standstill
you departed so quietly and so at peace ²
you departed so quietly and so at peace
I’ve heard so many things,
but I don’t understand a one ³
and that’s the reason why I just can’t sleep at night
and when I write a thousand songs about missing you
it doesn’t mean I understand
why this feeling always stays with me
So loud, the hours after the impact when it came time to grasp and to realize what took place, and it was
so loud, that everything we thought brought us nothing but emptiness
It was so loud and so depressing here ⁴
when silence lived with us instead of you
I’ve heard so many things,
but I don’t understand a one
and that’s the reason why I just can’t sleep at night
and when I write a thousand songs about missing you
it doesn’t mean I understand
why this feeling always stays with me
So silent, although I miss you every day
and wherever you are right now
you show me that silence has now become your friend
I’ve heard so many things,
but I don’t understand a one
and that’s the reason why I just can’t sleep at night
and when I write a thousand songs about missing you
it doesn’t mean I understand
it doesn’t mean I understand
I’ve heard so many things
But I don’t understand a one
and that’s the reason why I just can’t sleep at night
and when I write a thousand songs about missing you
it doesn’t mean I understand
why this feeling always stays with me
