Wenn Sie Tanzt [English translation]

Even if it doesn’t do me any good

I still see her surrounded

By all the people in that dive

I see her face as she moves

In the spotlight through the smoke

Of 100 cigarettes

Her arms are by her side

And she only dances for herself

She’s not interested in the

Strange looks from the crowds

Everything around her melts away

Completely oblivious

Obsessed by the moment

When she dances, when she dances

If she fully sinks into the music

Drown in the moment

And you didn’t even notice

That the world holds its breath

When she dances, when she dances

If she completely sinks into the music

Drown in the moment

And you didn’t even notice

That she outshines everyone ¹

She hasn’t detected me

I lurk and feel like a little boy

Just sipping at my wine

The tip of her tongue glides over her lips

She looks in my direction

Truth or fiction

As she narrowly brushes past me

Running her fingers through her hair

She touched me

Did I imagining it?

Did I feel it?

She gets herself another glass of wine

And drifts again

It’s hard to describe

When she dances, when she dances...

I stand there and can’t comprehend it

What’s happening here

What’s taking place

Don’t want to miss a moment

Can’t take my eyes off her

There’s nothing to talk about

Nothing to say

I want to see her just once more

Once again to stand beside her

When she dances, when she dances

When she dances, when she dances...
