Bozza - Elbe (English Translation) lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can't remember anymore, how did your food taste?
How does your voice sound when you wake me up?
What was I like as a kid? Did I do a lot of sh*t?
What did we do when we were alone at home?
What was it like for us here in Germany after the war?
Were you often disappointed with your boys?
All I know is that part of this family is missing
And just that I love you so much, ah

[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I look in the stars at night
And I see your face in front of me
It reflects so beautifully in the Elbe
Even though I know you're not herе
I sit all alone at the harbor in the cold
Evеn when I almost freeze to death
As half of my heart is missing
What I have left is a piece of paper

[Chorus]
I don't know if you hear me when I say something
If you see me under the radar
Are you really here when I'm not sleeping?
I can still feel it, even when you are silent
I don't know if you hear me when I say something
Or if you see me under the radar
Are you really here when I'm not sleeping?
I can still feel it, even when you are silent
[Verse 2]
Why can't you stay? Just to see what we've achieved
To see that both of your boys are in the clear
Why did you have to suffer so much? I don't take the doctors' words
Why are they telling me you're in a better place?
Since you left, dad has been losing his memory
You died at thirty-five, today he just turned sixty
Sit' at the pier, my tears are fallling like drizzle
For us it means saying goodbye and praying for a reunion

[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I look in the stars at night
And I see your face in front of me
It reflects so beautifully in the Elbe
Even though I know you're not here
I sit all alone at the harbor in the cold
Even when I almost freeze to death
As half of my heart is missing
What I have left is a piece of paper

[Chorus]
I don't know if you hear me when I say something
If you see me under the radar
Are you really here when I'm not sleeping?
I can still feel it, even when you are silent
I don't know if you hear me when I say something
Or if you see me under the radar
Are you really here when I'm not sleeping?
I can still feel it, even when you are silent
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I look in the stars at night
And I see your face in front of me
It reflects so beautifully in the Elbe
Even though I know you're not here
I sit all alone at the harbor in the cold
Even when I almost freeze to death
As half of my heart is missing
What I have left is a piece of paper

[Chorus]
I don't know if you hear me when I say something
If you see me under the radar
Are you really here when I'm not sleeping?
I can still feel it, even when you are silent
I don't know if you hear me when I say something
Or if you see me under the radar
Are you really here when I'm not sleeping?
I can still feel it, even when you are silent (And when you say nothing)

[Outro]
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh (And when you say nothing)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
