Ich will nur, dass du weißt [English translation]

[Part 1 (SDP)]

All my friends keep saying 'Keep your hands off her'

Since I'm hardly bearable any more, I always talk about you

Because you're online, but you don't text me

And I hammer at the desk

I wonder if you're currently alone

Or are you feeling the same right now?

Because always when you sit face-to-face to me

And you touch me, I get the feeling that is how it used to be

[Hook (Adel Tawil)]

I just want you to know

How often I write letters to you

And rip them up again

And that I love you, and shit

I just want you to know

How often I write songs for you

And don't show them to anyone

Because I don't want anyone to know about it

[Bridge (Adel Tawil)]

And I write text messages, but don't send them

I checked so often if you are online

And I was at your door, but didn't knock at it

I just wanted to see if there is someone at your side

[Part 2 (SDP)]

All my friends advise me to get you off my mind

They don't even know what they say, to forget you takes years

And I rarely go on the street any more, because I see couples everywhere only

And if another one shares the same name, well, then it almost takes my breath

Every time a woman wears your perfume

I imagine for a moment how you stand face-to-face to me.

And don't show them to anyone

Because I don't want anyone to know about it
