Hanne Haller geh nicht

When the morning came, I thought it was over,
because I was so fed up with us and the arguments.
When the morning came, neither of us could think of anything,
and you said you only want one thing now - just to be alone.
Oh, what a feeling to be completely helpless,
when I know for sure,
the idiotic argument isn't worth the despair .
Oh, what a feeling - it could be so simple,
if you want to scream - scream,
if you want to stay - stay;
it's so difficult for you to tell me:
Don't go when I need you,
Because we're just running from ourselves, from ourselves.
Please don't go when I need you,
don't talk about guilt, oh please, be patient -
we'll get through it!
Time heals wounds, but please hold me in your arms today
as tightly as you can and keep me warm.
When the morning came. Then you and I forgot
how much tenderness there was still in us
and looked at each other desperately.
Every look you gave penetrated so deeply into me,
but we lacked the strength to do so It's very easy to say:
Please hold me!
Oh, what a feeling when I no longer believe you,
and then no longer know what trust means -
No one means what they say.
Oh, what a feeling when I actually know
I only love you and loved your life
and can't show it.
Oh please, don't go when I need you, ...
Time heals wounds, but please take me today...
