Hand aufs Herz English translation
von Silbermond

My father never told me
How proud he is of me
Remind me if I ever forget
My father was a bit like me
And you maybe a bit like me
Whatever it is, let's talk

Up to this point it was always just me
For the first time in my life I commit myself

With my hand on my heart, I swear to you as long as I live
I will do everything for you, everything in my power
Go beyond the limits of my anger
Frustration overcome, say everything will be fine
My flesh and blood


My mother never told me
how bad it is sometimes
Hold my finger over my mouth when I'm complaining
And at some point when you have a handful of earth
Let it rain on my coffin
I hope that you think "It was alright"

With my hand on my heart, I swear to you as long as I live
I will do everything for you, everything in my power
Go beyond the limits of my anger
Frustration overcome, say everything will be fine
My flesh and blood

Up to this point it was always just me
For the first time in my life I commit myself

With my hand on my heart, I swear to you as long as I live
I will do everything for you, everything in my power
Go beyond the limits of my anger
Frustration overcome, say everything will be fine
My flesh and blood
