My love
My love for
My love for you
My love for you is no more or less
Than your love for me was
When your love was for me
There was beauty, now it's gone
There was heat, and now there's none
The clocks all stand still
Laughing is all wrong, and before long
I send sight beyond the light
Where are you
I'm alone, I'm so alone
Where are you
There was beauty, now it's gone
There was heat, and now there's none
The clocks all stand still
Laughing is all wrong, and before long
I send sight beyond the light
Where are you
I'm alone, I'm so alone
Where are you
I'm looking under every stone
Where are you
I fall asleep, knife prone
Where are you

There is no really elegant way to adapt the opening words of this song to English. German builds sentences in a much more structured way than English, and word order is critical to this song. I've done the best I could with an arse-backwards language, as in this case I didn't want to parrot back Till's German where the English didn't work quite right.
