Vogel der Nacht [English translation]

Fiery glances – you were looking at me

I thought I could escape

I wanted to resist, but I was already captured

Whatever I felt, I didn't want to allow it

I did enjoy drinking the sweet wine

Now there was no salvation anymore

Even If I should have better not stayed

Bird of the night, fly away

Your song was beautiful, but sadly

Your wings are not made for me

Bird of the night, I'm crying

But you won't get to see any tears

Dreams are dying in the wind while they're still young

In the wind while they're still young

Heaven and hell are often so close

I've only known that since I was with you

Because I never wanted to trifle with feelings

Even if I burn, I'm feeling cold now

You didn't say a word of love

You're still around and yet you're already far away

Bird of the night, I'm crying

But you won't get to see any tears

Dreams are dying in the wind while they're still young

In the wind while they're still young

Bird of the night, fly away

Your song was beautiful, but sadly

Your wings are not made for me

Bird of the night, I'm crying

But you won't get to see any tears

Dreams are dying in the wind while they're still young

In the wind while they're still young
