Tausend mal hab ich mich betrogen, A thousand times I have deceived myself, 00:25
Tausend mal hab ich dich gekränkt, A thousand times I have hurt you, 00:28
Tausend mal zuviel gelogen, A thousand times I lied too much, 00:31
Tausend mal alles verdrängt, A thousand times I suppressed everything, 00:34
Alles, alles, alles verdrängt. Everything, everything, suppressed. 00:36
Doch in dieser einen Stunde, But in this one hour, 00:40
In der ich dich verloren hab, In which I lost you, 00:42
Weiß ich, was ich dir angetan, I know what I did to you, 00:45
Breche über mich den Stab. I judge myself harshly. 00:48
Wollte doch mehr hinterlassen, Wanted to leave more behind, 00:51
Weiß nicht wohin mit meiner Wut, Don't know where to put my rage, 00:54
Außer gegen mich gerichtet, Except directed against myself, 00:57
Doch selbst dazu fehlt mir der Mut. But even for that I lack the courage. 01:00

Tausend mal dein Herz gebrochen, A thousand times broken your heart, 01:34
Tausend mal zu spät bereut. A thousand times regretted too late. 01:37
Zu spät, zu spät bereut. Too late, regretted too late. 01:40
Doch in dieser einen Stunde, But in this one hour, 01:43
Wenn der Wind sich plötzlich dreht, When the wind suddenly turns, 01:46
Habe ich den Sturm geerntet, I have reaped the storm, 01:49
Den ich selbst einst ausgesät. That I myself once sowed. 01:52
Wollte doch mehr hinterlassen, Wanted to leave more behind, 01:55
Wollte mehr doch für dich sein, Wanted to be more for you, 01:58
Als ein würdeloser Körper, Than a worthless body, 02:00
Abgekratzt vom Pflasterstein. Scraped off the pavement. 02:04
Dort, wo der Horizont There, where the horizon 02:06
Sich mit dem Meer verbindet, Connects with the sea, 02:09

Lyrics & Translation

[English] A thousand times I have deceived myself,
A thousand times I have hurt you,
A thousand times I lied too much,
A thousand times I suppressed everything,
Everything, everything, suppressed.
But in this one hour,
In which I lost you,
I know what I did to you,
I judge myself harshly.
Wanted to leave more behind,
Don't know where to put my rage,
Except directed against myself,
But even for that I lack the courage.
There, where the horizon
Connects with the sea,
There I wanted to wait for you,
So that you find me there.
There, where the horizon
Connects with the sea,
There I wanted to wait for you,
So that you find me there.
A thousand times too much promised,
A thousand times the same suffering,
A thousand times broken your heart,
A thousand times regretted too late.
Too late, regretted too late.
But in this one hour,
When the wind suddenly turns,
I have reaped the storm,
That I myself once sowed.
Wanted to leave more behind,
Wanted to be more for you,
Than a worthless body,
Scraped off the pavement.
There, where the horizon
Connects with the sea,
There I wanted to wait for you,
So that you find me there.
There, where the horizon
Connects with the sea,
There I wanted to wait for you,
So that you find me there.

There, where the horizon
Connects with the sea,
There I wanted to wait for you,
So that you find me there.
There, where the horizon
Connects with the sea,
There I wanted to wait for you,
So that you find me there.
