In your distant city lights I tried to read your time at night I tried to find your roof your floor The corners of your mind, the four And I'll return down to the mines Where you are safe from me And I will stop to burn your house And keep you safe from me The red flags on your dear façade Wouldn't break the secret to my guards Told me not with which wind to come Refused to tell how and when And I'll return down to the mines
Where you are safe from me And I will stop to burn your house And keep you safe from me How could I so clearly find And have no chance to read your signs Bring me back to your front door And me pretend that I was waited for I wish that you would search the mines And keep them safe from me I wish that you would stop the fire And keep it safe from me [- will ich will bi Dir sie]
