Allein
Nicole Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Könntest do mich doch nur seh'n
Hier I'm Hafen von Piräus in alten Blue Jeans
Und ein Glas voll mit rotem Wein halt' ich in der Hand.
Es ist drei Tage erst her
Da nahm ich nach uns'rem Streit einen Flug nach Athen
Wollt' beweisen
Daß ich's auch ohne dich schaffen kann.
Allein in Griechenland - auf einem Weg mit unbekanntem Ziel.

Ich lebe einmals so
Wie ich mich fühl' und denke nicht zurück.
Allein in Griechenland - verloren zwischen Sonne
Wind und Meer
Und nur ganz selten sehn' ich mich nach dir für einen Augenblick.
Ich bin hier fremd und bin doch unter Menschen
Die mir sagen: Komm'
Fühl dich zuhaus.
Kann schon sein
Daß ich so vergeß'
Was mir wirklich fehlt.
Ich träum' davon
Frei zu sein
Doch ich spüre
Ohne dich bleibt es immer ein Traum
Denn die Sonne wärmt nur die Haut
Doch mein Herz
Das friert.
Allein in Griechenland - ...
Allein in Griechenland - verloren zwischen Sonne

Wind und Meer
Doch irgendwann vermiß' ich dich zu sehr und komm' zu dir zurück.

Overall Meaning

The song "Allein in Griechenland" by Nicole is about a woman who has left her partner after a fight and is now alone in Greece trying to prove to herself that she can make it without him. She is in the port of Piraeus, wearing old blue jeans and holding a glass of red wine, feeling unsure of what her future holds. She is living in the present, not looking back, but she admits that sometimes she does miss him. She is a stranger in a foreign land but surrounded by friendly people who make her feel at home. She dreams of being free, but the reality is that without him, it will always be just a dream, as her heart is frozen and she cannot truly move on.
