Dutch song Paul de Leeuw, Simone Kleinsma - Zonder jou
with lyrics, music, video and English translation songtext
We were having quarrels all the time
And it became too much for me
We couldn't stand each other anymore
I couldn't bear my helplessness
I decided to live my life alone then
Although I still could forgive you once more
Quiet, it is so quiet when you're alone
Bijna altijd ruzie met elkaar
Het werd me allemaal teveel
We konden niets meer hebben van elkaar
De onmacht vloog me naar mijn keel
Ik besloot mijn leven alleen te leven
Maar ik kan alles opnieuw vergeven
Stil, het is zo stil hier alleen
Without you
My whole entire life seems colder
Without you
It suddenly seems much more silent
Without you
The things that were familiar are no more
And without you so close to me
The nights are always cold
Zonder jou
Is alles in mijn leven killer
Zonder jou
Is alles plotseling veel stiller
Zonder jou
Is wat voorheen vertrouwd was niet vertrouwd
En zonder jou tegen me aan
Is elke nacht weer koud
Although you threatened sometimes to break up
I didn't take it seriously
I listened but I never did a thing
Until you said: "Well, bye, farewell"
I sat on my bed, I was numb and broken
After you slammed the door and left me
Like that, I've let you go just like that
Hoewel jij vaak gedreigd had weg te gaan
Dacht ik: Ze speelt gewoon een spel
Ik heb je aangehoord, maar niets gedaan
Totdat je zei: "Nou dag, vaarwel"
Lamgeslagen heb ik op bed gezeten
Toen jij de deur had dichtgesmeten
Zomaar, 'k heb je zomaar laten gaan
Without you
My whole entire house seems colder
Without you
It suddenly seems much more silent
Without you
The things that were familiar are no more
And without you so close to me
The nights are always cold
Zonder jou
Is alles in het huis veel killer
Zonder jou
Is alles plotseling veel stiller
Zonder jou
Is wat voorheen vertrouwd was niet vertrouwd
En zonder jou tegen me aan
Is elke nacht weer koud
Without you
My whole entire life seems colder
But why, but why, but why
I let you go, but wherefore
Without you
It suddenly seems much more silent
But why, but why, but why
At last my eyes are opened
Without you
The things that were familiar are no more
But why, but why, but why
You were my whole entire life
And without you so close to me
The nights are always ...
And why, I let you go, wherefore
Zonder jou
Is alles in mijn leven killer
Waarom, waarom, waarom
Heb ik je laten lopen
Zonder jou
Is alles plotseling veel stiller
Waarom, waarom, waarom
Gaan nu mijn ogen open
Zonder jou
Is wat voorheen vertrouwd was niet vertrouwd
Waarom, waarom, waarom
Je bent mijn hele leven
En zonder jou tegen me aan
Is elke nacht weer ...
Waarom heb ik je laten gaan
Without you
My whole entire life seems colder
Without you
It suddenly seems much more silent
Without you
The things that were familiar are no more
And without you so close to me
The nights are always cold
Zonder jou
Is alles in mijn leven killer
Zonder jou
Is alles plotseling veel stiller
Zonder jou
Is wat voorheen vertrouwd was niet vertrouwd
En zonder jou tegen me aan
Is elke nacht weer koud
What should I do
Now without you
I am alone
I'm without you
Wat moet ik nou
Zo zonder jou
Ben ik alleen
Zo zonder jou
