Vertaling van: Trijntje Oosterhuis - Het Donker

The dark sheds light to all my fears and questions
The dark

The dark breaks the silence of my broken heart
The dark
The dark extinguish the lie, let's the truth speak volumes
The dark
The truth about me missing you every second of the day

It hurts because I know how much you needed me sometimes
And it hurts because I know that I wasn't there for you
It hurts because I know that I once meant the world to you
And it hurts because I know that I had hurt you, that hurts the most

The dark makes the distance between the two of us smaller
The dark
The dark makes your image appear from nowhere
The dark
I squeeze my eyes closed and picture you with me It hurts because I never saw you for who you were
Yes, it hurts because I only felt it when you had left me here
It hurts because I know what I did to myself by this
And it hurts because I know that it's my fault that you left

During the day I'm okay
I escape from the past
But when the dusk falls
It pulls me down again

It hurts because I know that someone else lays next to you in bed now
And it hurts because I notice he brings back a smile to your face
And it hurts because it is as if you have forgotten the time we had

The dark sheds light to all my fears and questions
The dark
