Was wichtig ist [English translation]

What is important is not what you call it.

Not what you are and if you know everything.

I know the rules, I control the game,

but all that knowledge does not help much.

What really matters, only now I know it.

What's important, is not what you have.

Not if your life suits other people.

I did not shy away from any dream

but I have not regretted anything.

What really matters, I know only today.

I wanted more, it also was that,

no star was too far away for me.

Now I stand here, I feel very clearly

All this is worth nothing without you.

I thought it was important to be free.

I thought that I was happy alone.

And yet, since I lost you,

my life seemed a mistake.

What really matters, I know only today.

What is important is often understood too late.

Because you do not understand it with the mind.

I do not know if I'll win you back,

I only know very deep inside of me,

whatever I think or do,

What's important, what's really important,

you are that!
