Elvis Costello feat. Burt Bacharach - My Thief - translation of the lyrics into German

My Thief - Elvis Costello , Burt Bacharach translation in German




My Thief
Meine Diebin
When I go to sleep, you become my thief
Wenn ich einschlafe, wirst du zu meiner Diebin
Why don't you steal what you can keep?
Warum stiehlst du nicht, was du behalten kannst?
But you won't let me be, you break into my dreams
Aber du lässt mich nicht in Ruhe, du brichst in meine Träume ein
And every day seems different
Und jeder Tag scheint anders
Sometimes I pretend you'll come back again
Manchmal stelle ich mir vor, du kommst wieder zurück
And you'll console the heart you stole
Und du wirst das Herz trösten, das du gestohlen hast
Have pity on the man who knows that you have gone
Habe Mitleid mit dem Mann, der weiß, dass du gegangen bist
And has begun to break down
Und der zusammenzubrechen beginnt
I feel almost possessed
Ich fühle mich fast besessen
So long as I don't lose this glorious distress, then
Solange ich diese herrliche Qual nicht verliere, dann
You can take all I have left
Kannst du alles nehmen, was mir noch bleibt
I know it's over
Ich weiß, es ist vorbei
If you can't be my lover
Wenn du nicht meine Geliebte sein kannst
Be my thief
Sei meine Diebin
I'm so drowsy now, I'll unlock the door
Ich bin jetzt so schläfrig, ich werde die Tür aufschließen
What fades in time will hurt much more
Was mit der Zeit verblasst, wird viel mehr schmerzen
So, here's that happy scene where you come back to me
Also, hier ist die glückliche Szene, in der du zu mir zurückkommst
It's only found in fiction
Sie existiert nur in der Fiktion
I feel almost possessed
Ich fühle mich fast besessen
So long as I don't lose this glorious distress, then
Solange ich diese herrliche Qual nicht verliere, dann
You can take all I have left
Kannst du alles nehmen, was mir noch bleibt
I know it's over
Ich weiß, es ist vorbei
If you can't be my lover
Wenn du nicht meine Geliebte sein kannst
Be my thief
Sei meine Diebin
I didn't lead you on, but there will always be
Ich habe dich nicht verführt, aber es wird immer
A little larceny in everyone
Ein wenig Diebstahl in jedem geben
So hush and don't you cry, I'm trying to be kind
Also sei still und weine nicht, ich versuche, nett zu sein
Because I have a perfect alibi
Weil ich ein perfektes Alibi habe
