Einsamer Stern English translation
von Matthias Reim

There's a lonely star up in the sky
That's where our love lives, so far away

I haven't seen you in a long time
I don't even think about you anymore
I can walk upright again
I couldn't do that a few weeks ago

You said you had someone else
I said, ‘I don't care’
You'll keep wandering endlessly
And for me it was a free fall

I can't live without you
I thought that wasn't true

And up in the sky there is a lonely star
That's where our love lives, so far away
So a sun became just a cold planet
Light years away (light years away)
In the night sky (in the night sky)


And when I look up at the sky for that little star
Then I think of you, I still like to do that
Every glance upwards reminds me
That there are things (that there are things)
That you can't hold on to (that you can't hold on to)

I thought I was going to die
When you said, ‘It's over’
All around me was a pile of broken pieces
I thought I'd never get out of it

But my whole life
Actually began when you left

And up in the sky there is a lonely star
That's where our love lives, so far away
So a sun became just a cold planet
Light years away (Light years away)
In the night sky (in the night sky)

And when I look up at the sky and see that little star
I think of you, I still love doing that
Every glance upwards reminds me
That there are things (that there are things)
That you can't hold on to (that you can't hold on to)


So sometimes I think of you quietly
Because I can't forget you completely
A star is a star and not a black hole
It will always be that way
Damn it, I still love you

And up in the sky there is a lonely star
That's where our love lives, so far away
So a sun became just a cold planet
Light years away (light years away)
In the night sky (in the night sky)

And when I look up at the sky for the little star
Then I think of you, I still like to do that
Every glance upwards reminds me
That there are things (that there are things)
That you can't hold on to (that you can't hold on to)

Oh, my God
I can't hear you
And now from me to you
You guys are awesome
