Scharlachrot English translation
von Patent Ochsner

It's like in a movie
The scene on this Friday night
The moon is a white round hole
And looks just like me

I've been here a long time
far too long alone
and emptied bottles
counted hours in the far too big bed
and watched the world spinning...
...just not around me...

And now you've come
just now,
when I no longer expected it
and you look at me
as if there was something beautiful to win
for you and for me
at worst just one night
(but still)


I'm building my dreams around you
and painting them scarlet
I'm burning your name right into my heart
I'd swear I'll stay forever if nothing
comes between us

And now you've come
just now,
when I no longer expected it
and look at me
as if there was something beautiful to win
for you and for me
at worst just one night

I'm building my dreams around you
and painting them scarlet
I'm burning your name right into my heart
I'd swear I'll stay forever if nothing
comes between us

I'm building my dreams around you
and painting them scarlet
I'm burning your name right into my heart
I'd swear I'll stay forever if nothing
comes between us
