I'm sad because I can only look, because I cannot touch
You stand right before me and I'm always behind you

I'm always standing in the shadow, crying with my shadowed face
I can't even ask you to turn around
Again I am crying

Even when tomorrow comes, I love you
I love you more than yesterday
Without being able to express what's in my heart
Again today, I love you

I don't want to be behind you
I always want to be next to you
I want that day to come
That is why I live

Even when I see you I miss you
Even when we're together I'm lonely
I don't see an end to this one-sided love
Although it's hard and although it's upsetting

Even when tomorrow comes, I love you
I love you more than yesterday
Without being able to express what's in my heart
Again today, I love you

That person, the fool, who doesn't even know my heart
That person, right in front of me
Yes, that person is you

Even when I see you I miss you
Even when we're together I'm lonely
I don't see an end to this one-sided love
Although it's hard and although it's upsetting

Even when tomorrow comes, I love you
I love you more than yesterday
Without being able to express what's in my heart
Again today, I love you

I only love you...
