Du Bist So Schön

A room full of moonlight, full of light
That reflects and breaks on you
Touches and penetrates my eyes
Until this moon sinks again
You cover your face with your hands
Because you don't allow me long looks
But what I'm looking at here, I must confess
I can see it even without my eyes
You are so beautiful
You are so beautiful

A room full of night, full of you sleeping
And I lie here awake, watching you sleep
A shell full of human, full of life and death
Just a moment that also threatens to end
I feel it burning on the tip of my tongue
And I like to call things by their name
So I wake you up, I turn on the light for that
So I can tell you in person
You are so beautiful
You are so beautiful

A room full of sky made of artificial stars
That remove the darkness under the night
Your blinking eyes scorn the light
I read that in your face
You tell me not to look, I ask you why
Your answer is wordless, you just turn around
And I will endure missing the image
But I just love to look!
You are so beautiful
You are so beautiful
