Dann Schlug Es Dreizehn
Udo Jürgens
Then It Struck Thirteen
Many evenings I saw shining lights and girls’ faces before me
Then I suddenly saw the one and couldn't get away from her
When I met her she was shy and well-behaved, and she looked at me innocently
But she told me where I could be alone with her
And then it struck thirteen
Although she was eighteen
Had she long known the ABC of love
And then it struck thirteen
I didn't say anything else
I liked her thirteen times better than all the others before
To tell great stories about her, that is what so many imagined
Whatever you thought, she laughed and didn't care
And when someone she admired desired her, she simply did not listen
But then everything was clear when I met her
And then it struck thirteen
Although she was eighteen
Had she long known the ABC of love
And then it struck thirteen
I didn't say anything else
I liked her thirteen times better than all the others before
And then it struck thirteen
Although she was eighteen
Had she long known the ABC of love
And then it struck thirteen
I didn't say anything else
I liked her thirteen times better than all the others before
I liked her thirteen times better than all the others before
