And we are dancing...
And we were dancing in the snow last year
The moon glittered softly in your hair
And it also does hardly hurt anymore
When I see everything before me
As if it were last night, starlit
Your skin and pride don't remain for me for long now
I would give everything for a magic elixir
One that makes you love me
Longer than just one night
But my arms and the nights remain empty
Just this last time give me power for a new day
I stand naked and helpless before the morning, I've never been that strong
Just once more power for a day and I tear down all walls around me
Only one who opens up for pain lets in love as well
And we were dancing in the snow last year
The moon glittered softly in your hair
And it almost doesn't hurt any more
When I see everything before me
As if it was yesterday and not last year
If I want to grab it, it's already no longer there
No one was ever more distant and so close
Not even silence says how deep
Like an unsent letter
What broke when I looked into your eyes
This letter remains unsent by me as well
The loveliest song I didn't write on paper
I wrote it on your face
With my fingers, don't you see
What my mouth left for you?
Look on your skin and read
Search for where my tongue has been
Search for my song in your hair
If you want to understand my feeling
You have to look at yourself in you
Close your eyes and you will see I'm inside you
I spread my arms, greet you, come to my heart
I'll heal you, just let go and give me all your pain
Just run away, flee from me, live your life without me
Wherever you may go, my love is already waiting for you
And we were dancing in the snow last year
The moon shone so softly in your hair
If you don't see me, I am
Simply not important any more
Dissolve like snow, like snow of the past year
The moon glittered softly in your hair
And it also does hardly hurt anymore
When I see everything before me
As if it were last night, starlit
Your skin and pride don't remain for me for long now
I would give everything for a magic elixir
One that makes you love me
Longer than just one night
But my arms and the nights remain empty
Just this last time give me power for a new day
I stand naked and helpless before the morning, I've never been that strong
Just once more power for a day and I tear down all walls around me
Only one who opens up for pain lets in love as well
And we were dancing in the snow last year
The moon glittered softly in your hair
And it almost doesn't hurt any more
When I see everything before me
As if it was yesterday and not last year
