this song has been originally composed by singer/songwriter 'Herbert Groenemeyer' from Germany.
I did my very best to translate this emotional packed piece into English.
There is a link beneath the poem which directs you to a video, so you can enjoy the lyrics, with music, in its original version.
Eventhough you might not understand the language, his words will still talk to you!!

shadows in your eyes
you wear a painted smile
your thoughts have left me long ago

your touch seems mechanical
totally sterile
your hand is cold as ice
you horrify me


I'm feeling used and empty
everything hurts
airplanes fly in my belly

I can't eat anymore
I can't forget about you
but I will succeed with that, too


Give me my heart back
you don't need my love
Give me my heart back
before this turns into a wreck

as sooner, as sooner you leave
as easier, as easier it'll be for me


don't need no one who tortures me
no one who squashes me
no one who uses me when he wants

who talks to me only
out of sense of duty
who nurses on me just his vanity


no one who isn't here when I need it most
when I gasp for air
and swim on dry land


let me go
oh - please let me go
so this can be the end


Give me my heart back
you don't need my love
Give me my heart back
before this turns into a wreck

as sooner, as sooner you leave
as easier, as easier it'll be for me
