Cello English translation
von Udo Lindenberg

Hitchhiked or with a moped, or black with the train
I've always been following you somehow
No, back then I never missed a concert of yours
And at night I couldn't sleep, or if I did, I dreamed of you.

You played the cello in every hall in our area.
I always sat in the front row and found you so exciting.
Cello
You were a goddess to me and sometimes you looked at me
And I'd think "Man oh man" and then I'd be all over again.


Yes, I was always there and that's what convinced you
We always wanted to stay together
And anyway, with you, that was so big, that can't be described at all.

And today you live somewhere and your cello is in the cellar.
Come on, unpack the thing again and play as beautifully as before

You used to play the cello in every hall in our area.
I always sat in the front row and found you so arousing
Cello
You were a goddess to me and sometimes you looked at me
And I'd think, "Man, oh, man," and then I'd get exhausted again.
