Ein Bett im Kornfeld (Let Your Love Flow) English translation
von Jürgen Drews

Summer evening over blooming land
I've been standing by the roadside since noon
With every car that passed by, I raised my thumb
Then a girl came by on a bicycle
And she said, "I feel so sorry for you!"
But I laughed and said, "I don't need soft down feathers"

A bed in the cornfield, it's always free
Because it's summer, and what’s the harm in that?
The crickets sing, and it smells like hay when I dream
Hmm, a bed in the cornfield between flowers and straw
And the stars shine for me anyway
I'll make a bed in the cornfield somewhere all alone

A little later, her bike lay in the grass
And so it happened that she lost track of time
With the guitar, (haha), I told her about my life
Suddenly she cried, "It’s getting late
It's already dark, and my way is still far!"
But I laughed and said, "I have much more to give you!"


A bed in the cornfield, it's always free
Because it's summer, and what’s the harm in that?
The crickets sing, and it smells like hay when we dream
Hmm, a bed in the cornfield between flowers and straw
And the stars shine for us anyway
I'll make a bed in the cornfield somewhere just for us

Hmm, a bed in the cornfield, it's always free
Because it's summer, and what’s the harm in that?
The crickets sing, and it smells like hay when we dream
Hmm-hmm, a bed in the cornfield between flowers and straw
And the stars shine for us anyway
I'll make a bed in the cornfield somewhere just for us

Na na na na na
A bed in the cornfield, and what’s the harm in that?
Na na na na na
Hmm, a bed in the cornfield
A bed in the cornfield, it's always free
Because it's summer, and what’s the harm in that?
Na na na na na, ohh, na na na na na
