We dance and we stamp
our tears into the plank floor --
crying together.
We dansen, stampen	Unsere Tränen
onze tranen de vloer in --	in den Boden stampfen: wir --
en huilen samen.	weinen gemeinsam.

We're back in his house,
and my shoes are on the shelf --
And his shoes are not.
Terug in zijn huis,	Sein Haus betreten,
en mijn schoenen staan er nog --	meine Schuhe sind noch da --
De zijne niet meer.	Und seine nicht mehr.

Walk backwards, away
from the facade, then you'll fly --
higher and higher.
Loop achteruit, weg	Gehe rückwärts, weg
van de gevel, dan vlieg je --	von der Fassade, dann fliegst --
steeds verder omhoog.	du immer höher.

verdriet is het grootst?	Kummer ist größer?
