Often Asked (A Poem) -

You dressed me, undressed me, raised me

And we moved too,

Well, I also lied to you

No, those drugs I didn’t do

And yes, I was in class too

You often asked yourself what was tearing me apart inside

But in you, I didn’t want to confide

You were home all alone, you missed me

And asked yourself, what you still were to me

Asked yourself, what you still were to me

Home is always only you

You picked me up and dropped me off

And you stayed awake that night when I had whooping cough

You are so wonderful, you are so kind

And all of this has been so often on my mind

We were in Prague, Munich, Amsterdam, and Berlin

When you think about it, Where didn’t we go?

You often asked yourself what was tearing me apart inside

And honestly, I just don’t know

You were home all alone, you missed me

And asked yourself, what you still were to me

Asked yourself, what you still were to me

Home is always only you

This was a song called “Oft Gefragt” by AnnenMayKantereit in German that I translated into English. I thought it worked perfect.
