I'm a stranger here myself (Ute Lemper) (исполнитель: Курт Вайль)
Tell me is love still popular suggestion, Or merely an obsolete art? Forgive me for asking This simple question; I'm unfamiliar with his heart, I am a stranger here myself Why is it wrong To murmur, "I adore him!" When it's shamefully obvious I do? Does love embarrass him, Or does it bore him? I'm only waiting for my cue, I'm a stranger here myself I dream of a day Of a [bad word] warm day With my face between his hands Have I missed the path? Have I gone astray? I ask and no one understands Love me or leave me That seems to be the question I don't know the tactics to use But if he should offer personal suggestion How could I possibly refuse When I'm a stranger here myself? Please tell me Tell a stranger My curiousity goaded Is there really any danger That love is now out-moded? I'm interested especially In knowing why you waste it [bad word] romance is so fleshly With what have you replaced it? What is your latest foibal? Is [bad word] more exquisite? Is skiing more enjoyable? For heaven's sake what is it? I can't believe That love has lost its glamour That passion is really passé If gender is just a term in grammar How can I ever find my way? Since I'm a stranger here myself How can he ignore my Available condition? Why these Victorian views? You see here before you woman with a mission I must discover the key to his ignition And then if he should make diplomatic proposition How could I possibly refuse? How could I possibly refuse When I'm a stranger here myself?
