Because Of You   (Wäge Dir)

Sometimes I sit here and think..
Where would I be,
What would I be without you?
Would I be a pensioner ?
And everything would be just the same old shit.

But you give me that thing that I need.
Because of you I’m still going.
When I think of how long we’ve been together,
And we two are still here.

I hope that continues.
No, I know it will go on for a long time .
I never could go away from you.
It’s like an inner obligation.

    Because of you, only because of you!

We were both so young.
And you were so wild and hot.
I had completely forgotten myself in you.
And I still do that today, I know.

You have not always made it easy for me.
With your wild shifts in direction.
You became heavy, hard & loud.
In a way I had had enough of you.

There was another who took me inside
Romantic, soft & gentle
I lost my mind and fell in love
In a completely different way

    Because of you, only because of you!

It was going on for a couple of years.
I really liked it, I admit it.
But after awhile I couldn’t take the eerie quiet.

I really did miss you.
I had to have you once more.
But in a way it was good,
That I left you for a few years.

Now I enjoy many types.
Thanks to the Venus in the twins.
And none of them can be angry with me.
We all find a way to get a long.

    Because of you, only because of you!

I knew your father from the past.
We called him cowboy music.
And I always secretly loved your mother.
She laid the blues in your cradle.

When you were just an embryo,
They called you Rock-A-Billy.
Born as Rock’n’Roll.
I fire that is still burning today.

We were all jumping for you.
Little Paul, The Stones, Bob & me.
You showed us what music is.
And now we still all have the bug.

    Because of you, only because of you!
