Zachtjes Zingen [English translation]

I haven't forgotten anything

You told me

You may say anything

As long as you don't judge

It's not as if all words

Are always empty and meaningless

But you should realise

That more often than not, things are not as real as they seem

Speaking of real

Why won't you touch me?

You are so close now

And I only want to...

Sing softly about things that no one knows about

I can think out loud with you

And I want to sing softly about things no one knows about

I can think out loud with you

So I want to think out loud and involve you in an idea

That could be a song

And then sing it softly until the things no one knows about

Have become yours

You don't have to say

That you aren't who you seem

I can see that

But as time passes

I learn to understand you

I learn what it is your heart desires

You do the same (the same in reverse)

And I only want to...

Sing softly about things that no one knows about

I can think out loud with you

And I want to sing softly about things no one knows about

I can think out loud with you

So I want to think out loud and involve you in an idea

That could be a song

And then sing it softly until the things no one knows about

Have become yours

(Sing softly about things that no one knows about)

And I only want to...(have become)
