If I laid it out to you
All my strange and secret rules
If I turned into a wreck
Would you stay?
If mankind drowned in wars
Hatred, bombs, blood and rape
If compassion dies out
Would we know where to go?
If mother earth simply stopped turning
Left us here
In deepest yearning
Overwhelming craving, wanting
Would we know where to go?
Would you be there with arms wide open
If you knew all of this
If you knew all of me
If you saw our hearts colliding
With the old bitterness
Would you still stand here behind me
Just in case...
Could you bear the cries of woman
Giving birth through
Broken moons
Grandma's still the one who hurts them
As it's been for generations
Could I bear more of this news
Watching Rwunda everywhere
Could I become a racist too
Despite my wounded German roots?
Love don't choose between black or white
Jewish, Muslim, Christian girl or guy
But blindly passing on tradition leads to fanaticism
Would you be there with arms wide open
If you knew all of it, if you knew all of me
If you saw our hearts colliding
With the old bitterness
Would you still stand here behind me
Just in case...Just in case I'd go mad
Love don't choose between black or white
Jewish, Muslim, Christian girl or guy
Blindly passing on tradition leads to fanaticism
Would you be there with arms wide open
If you knew all of me, if you knew all of it
Would you be there with arms wide open
If you knew all of this, if you knew all of me
If you saw our hearts colliding
With the old bitterness
Would you still stand here behind me
Just in case...Just in case
