Applaus, Applaus English translation
von Sportfreunde Stiller

If my hand is a fist
You open it again
And put yours in mine
You whisper phrases carefully
Through all the noise
As if they were my sextant and compass

Applause, applause
For your words
My heart opens
When you laugh
Applause, applause
For the way you inspire me
Never stop it
I wish so much
That you never stop it


If my earth is flat
You make it round again
Show me in a quiet way what foresight means
If I want to hit my head
Against the wall again
You put a helmet and hammer in my hand

Applause, applause
For your words
My heart opens
When you laugh
Applause, applause
For the way you inspire me
Never stop it
I wish so much
That you never stop it

Applause, applause
For your words
My heart opens
When you laugh
Applause, applause
For the way you inspire me
Never stop it
I wish so much
That you never stop it
