Er War Wie Du
Claudia Jung
He Was Like You
It was his face and his brown hair
It was his laughter and his look when he was happy
It was his longing in the night
The silent tenderness afterwards
I'll never forget him
He was like you
It was the feeling that heaven is very close
When he first took me in his arms
It was like fire on the skin
Strange and yet very familiar
I'll never forget him
He was like you
We were both much too young back then
And reached for the stars
Dealing with feelings
We still had to learn that
Even today I don’t regret a single hour
That we were together
It was a nice time
He was like you
Every day without him is wasted time for me
We did not yet know that love dies without freedom
Because who thinks about it at seventeen
That there can be tears
I'll never forget him
He was like you
We were both much too young back then
And reached for the stars
Dealing with feelings
We still had to learn that
Even today I don’t regret a single hour
That we were together
It was a nice time
He was like you
The night was so cold when he left in the fight
And the days until you came were called loneliness
I know you never leave like that
Because I feel that you understand
When I say to you
He was like you
Can say to you
He was like you
I'll never forget him
He was like you
