lyrics

Dein blaues Auge hält so still,
Ich blicke bis zum Grund.
Du fragst mich,
Was ich sehen will?
Ich sehe mich gesund.

Es brannte mich ein glühend Paar,
Noch schmerzt, noch schmerzt das Nachgefühl:
Das deine ist wie See so klar
Und wie ein See so kühl.

Translation:
Your blue eyes keep so still,
That I can gaze upon their very depths.
You ask me,
What do I want to see?
I see my own well-being.

A glowing pair burned me once;
The scar still hurts, still hurts.
Yet your eyes are like the sea so clear,
And like the sea, so cool and detached.
