Ich bin wie ich bin English translation
von Adel Tawil

Yeah oh oh
Yeah oh oh oh
Yeah oh oh
Yeah oh oh oh

I have good ears, people talk a lot, eh
I can hear what they say
It seems like everyone always knows exactly
what is missing in my life
I always thought I'd please everyone
Now it is clear to me that this is not possible
When a hundred people want a hundred things
You start to turn in circles

I'm starting to go round in circles...


And I am who I am in search of meaning
Am here alone with me
Close your eyes and sit down
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano
And I am what I am and fly somewhere
Am here in the dark with me
Close your eyes and look inside
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano

Yeah oh oh
Yeah oh oh oh
Yeah oh oh
Yeah oh oh oh

Sometimes I don't get on very well
My shoulders are heavy as lead
Then I dance with the moon and sleep in the sunshine
But that too shall pass
The next day I embrace the whole world
I'll take you with me and invite you
Actually, I like having you with me
And sometimes I like to be alone

Sometimes I like to be alone...


And I am who I am in search of meaning
Am here alone with me
Close your eyes and sit down
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano
And I am what I am and fly somewhere
Am here in the dark with me
Close your eyes and look inside
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano

I walk through the rain, long for palm trees
Haven't seen the sun for far too long
But as long as the stars don't fall from the sky
Isn't it time to go yet?

No time to go yet...

And I am who I am in search of meaning
Am here alone with me
Close your eyes and sit down
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano
And I am what I am and fly somewhere
Am here in the dark with me
Close your eyes and look inwards
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano

Yeah oh oh
Yeah oh oh oh
Yeah oh oh
If the power goes out, I'll play the piano
