Lass mich fliegen English translation
von Kärbholz

Gray asphalt, gray houses
On the way to nowhere or somewhere
A new day, the street has me again
I don’t know where I come from and I don’t know
Where I am
I’m trapped between truth and dream
Between illusions and building on false hope
And it can happen that I lose myself
And never find my way back here

But let me fly, let me fly
Just for a while, until the waves are calmer
Let me fly, I want to fly
Just a little longer against the wind!
Against the wind!


Is there anyone who understands me
Who walks with me in this direction
From which there is no turning back
Put your finger to your lips
So every doubt falls silent now
And take with you the talk of sense and nonsense
I never want to hear it again!

But let me fly, let me fly
Just for a while, until the waves are calmer
Let me fly, I want to fly
Just a little longer against the wind!

And if it tears us apart
I’ll hold your hand as long as I can
And if fate is kind to us
We will see each other again, sometime
At some time

But let me fly, let me fly
Just for a while, until the waves are calmer
Let me fly, I want to fly
Just a little longer against the wind!

But let me fly, let me fly
Just for a while, until the waves are calmer
Let me fly, I want to fly
Just a little longer against the wind!
Against the wind!
