Seemann (English)

Come in my boat
A storm is rising / and the night is coming
Where do you want to go
So all alone / you are drifting away
Who will hold your hand
When it pulls you under

Where do you want you want to go
So boundless / the cold sea
Come in my boat
The wind of autumn / stiffens the sails

Now you are standing by the lantern
With tears in your face
The evening light chases the shadows away
Time stands still and it becomes autumn

Come in my boat
Yearning becomes / the helmsmen
Come in my boat
The best sailor / was I

Now you are standing by the lantern
With tears in your face
You take the fire from the candle
Time stands still and it becomes autumn

They only spoke of your mother
So merciless is only the night
In the end I'm left alone
The time stands still
And I am cold
