Für 'ne Frau (Live, Cologne, 1980)

And guess what I found

It's a letter that I started writing

When you walked out

It says that I won't miss you

Because I've met someone who's more exciting

But that wasn't true

So how did I lose you?

The last thing you ever wanted to do was to hurt me

But I'd still accuse you

And I couldn't know

I'd never feel the same way with another

So I let you go

Yeah, I've got a girlfriend

She's beautiful, considerate and yes, I do love her

But I'm not going to pretend

That she's ever going to be the one

Because now I know that it was you all the time

How could I ever think it wasn't true?

Now I've stopped trying to tell myself that I've

Grown out of being in love with you

And deep in the night

I lie awake and think about you

Of course it's not right

But what can I do?

I can't sleep in this bed without you

If you only knew

Yeah, I've got a girlfriend

She's beautiful, considerate and yes, I do love her

But I'm not going to pretend

That she's ever going to be the one

Because now I know that it was you all the time

How could I ever think it wasn't true?

So now I've stopped trying to tell myself that I've

Grown out of being in love with you

Now I know that it was you all the time

How could I ever think it wasn't true?

Now I've stopped trying to tell myself that I've

Grown out of being in love with you
