Text:
brother dear, come and be so kind *
brother dear, come touch me
slide closely to me

In front of the bed, a black hole
and every sheep falls inside
I am already too old, yet still count them
because I cannot sleep

Under the navel, in the branches
a white dream is already waiting
brother dear, come hold tightly
and shake the leaves from the tree for me

Play a game with me
give me your hand and
play with me
a game
play with me
a game
play with me
because we are alone
play with me
a game
father, mother, child

Dear brother's hand hurts
he turns to the wall again
the brother helps me now and then
so that I can sleep

Play a game
with me
give me your hand and
play with me
a game
play with me
a game
play with me
because we are alone
play with me
a game
father, mother, child
