Idiot English translation
von Matthias Reim

You idiot
You idiot
You idiot
I somehow suspected that I would meet you here tonight
I just didn't plan on having the guy at your side
Now I understand, you probably never dreamed of me again
The room in your heart where I lived is empty
I did a lot of things when we were still together
And my train in your station has probably left
I'd really like to know from you whether it can still be saved
What I messed up once and whether you still love me?


I still feel like I did back then
Still the same, you idiot
But you didn't understand me back then either
Didn't understand me, you idiot
I could still beat you up for it today
Because you just don't get it
I'm curious how long it will take you to understand
That you'll never lose me
You idiot
No question, I'm out, you dumped me coldly
Not a kiss, not even a smile, did I never exist?
Wasn't that the great love that slipped through our hands?
No matter how long ago it was, does it not affect you at all?
Aren't you torn in two anymore, like me?
One wants to forget you completely, but the other can't
You talk to strangers, but not a word to me
Do I even count for you anymore? I'd like to know that from you

I still feel the same way I did back then
Still the same way, you idiot
But you didn't understand me back then
Didn't understand me, you idiot

I could still beat you up for it today
Because you just don't get it
I'm curious how long it takes you to understand
That you'll never lose me

How could I have been so stupid to lose something so big?

How could I have been so stupid?

I still feel the same way I did back then
Still the same way, you idiot
But you didn't understand me back then
Didn't understand me, you idiot

I could still beat you up for it today
Because you just don't get it
I'm curious how long it takes you to understand
That you'll never lose me

How could I have been so stupid?


And really never lose
How could I have been so stupid? You idiot

I could beat you up for that today
How could I have been so stupid?
I wonder how long it will take you to understand
That you will never lose me

You idiot
You idiot
