Und ich sitz schon wieder barfuß am Klavier
Ich träume Liebeslieder und sing dabei von dir
Du und ich, wir waren wunderlich
Nicht für mich
Für die, die es störte, wenn man uns nachts hörte
Ich hab mit dir gemeinsam einsam rumgesessen und geschwiegen
Ich erinnere mich am Besten ans gemeinsam einsam Liegen
Jeden Morgen danach bei dir
Du nackt im Bett - und ich barfuß am Klavier
Und ich sitz schon wieder barfuß am Klavier
Ich träume Liebeslieder und sing dabei von dir
Du und ich, wir war'n mal wir. Und sind jetzt nichts
Du da, ich hier
Du wolltest alles wissen und das hat mich vertrieben
Eigentlich dich, du bist nicht länger geblieben; bei mir
Also sitz ich, um zu lieben, lieber barfuß am Klavier
Und ich sitz schon wieder barfuß am Klavier
Ich träume Liebeslieder und sing dabei von dir
Du und ich, das war zu wenig
Und ich sitz schon wieder barfuß am Klavier
Und träum dabei von dir. Ich träum dabei von dir
Ich träum dabei von dir
And I sit here again barefoot at the piano
I dream of love songs and sing of you
You and I, we were strange
But not to me
For those, who were disturbed by us, when they heard us in the night
We were lonely together
I remember, laying with you, lonely together
Every morning with you
You naked in bed and me barefoot at the piano
And I sit here again barefoot at the piano
I dream of love songs and sing of you
You and I, were once we, but now we are nothing
You there, me here
You wanted to know everything, that pushed me away
Actually you, you did not stay longer, with me
So I sit, to love, barefoot at the piano
And I sit here again barefoot at the piano
I dream of love songs and sing of you
You and I, it was too short
And I sit already again barefoot at the piano
I dream of love songs and sing of you
I dream of love songs and sing of you
I dream of love songs and sing of you
And I sit here again barefoot at the keys
I’m dreaming of love songs and only sing for you
You and I, we were seen as strange
Not for me
For those who we disturbed, when they heard us at night
I was with you always sitting feeling lonely but still together
I remember it the best how it’d be us together still lonely
All the mornings at your place
You still in bed and me barefoot at the keys
And I sit here again barefoot at the keys
I’m dreaming of love songs and only sing for you
You and I, we were once we. and now nothing
You there, me here
You wanted to know everything, that pushed me away
Actually you, you had decided not to stay with me
And so I sit, to feel the love, rather barefoot at the keys
And I sit here again barefoot at the keys
I’m dreaming of love songs and only sing for you
You and I, it was too short
And I sit again barefoot at the keys
And I only dream of you
I only dream of you
I only dream of you
