Ich war niemals fort von dir

I'm driving on the highway
And I was just thinking of you
The Sun is just rising
And drives away the rest of the night
You have ten minutes left
Until the radio clock wakes you up
Surely you are lying across the bed
As always half covered

A few kilometers up
Are the ten minutes up
You'll wake up sleepy
Turn around again before
Now you go into our bathroom
Comb the day into your hair
And I can't touch you
And I am still close to you

I was never away from you
Never away from you
Because what are a few days
A few miles from here
I was never really away from you

You're bathing way too long again
And your toast will get cold
And I have breakfast just like you
Stop at a rest stop
Now you bring in the newspaper
Read the horoscope first
And now you run out of the house
Because you were almost late

And I'm rolling off the miles
And I see only you in my mind
It's slowly becoming afternoon
You're coming home just like me
Come home like me
And we meet exactly
Downstairs in front of the entrance door
I was never really away from you

I was never away from you
Never away from you
Because what are a few days
A few miles from here
I was never really away from you

I was never away from you
I was never really away from you
