Nobody knows what goes on inside
Nobody can understand why
Nobody can turn things right
But all I can do is cry

I tried, I really did try
but you just didn't manage to catch it
didn't even notice
didn't even say Hi!

Maybe it is just me
Maybe I am the one who can't understand
The one who just doesn't get it.

I feel lost
I don't fit in
I'm just a stranger
I just can't give in.

Plaster my face with a smile
to cover everything else
Nobody knows
and I just don't get it.
is it you who sent your caress
through this wind-
was it your loneliness
that made me shiver
and reach out in despair?
