Fast hält länger als fest English translation
von Ina Müller

You were exactly my type
You made an effort for me
We spent time together
Then you stayed overnight
Days flew by with ease
Happiness all of a sudden
Then one day
You stopped picking up the phone

Because there was never an ending
Never a final line
I still think of you far too often

’Cause it went on for almost a year
We were almost a couple
And it was almost perfect
My heart almost broke over it

I was almost ready to love you
I almost stayed with you
You’ll be the guy who never truly leaves me
Because “almost” lasts longer than “holding on”


When something bothers me
When something’s missing
I sometimes think
Maybe it’s still you

It was really strange
All at once you were gone
I never did find out
What your reasons were

Because there was never an ending
So it never really passed
I still can’t manage to let go

’Cause it went on for almost a year
We were almost a couple
And it was almost perfect
My heart almost broke over it

I was almost ready to love you
I almost stayed with you
You’ll be the guy who never truly leaves me
Because “almost” lasts longer than “holding on”

I was almost ready to love you
I almost stayed with you
You’ll be the guy who never truly leaves me
Because “almost” lasts longer than “holding on”
