I have good news and bad news
First the bad: "We crumble to dust"
We turn to ashes, return to the nothingness
Back from where we all once came
And now the good, not today
There is still time for you and me
And if you want, then sleep with me tonight

Don't believe any preacher, of any color
Who threatens with hell and thus explains the world
They have more fear than comfort in their offer
It's hard enough to get by without them
And I often can't cope, anything else would be
Too detached for me as a reaction
And what I want to ask is: "Are you sleeping with me tonight?"

What I really just want to ask is: "Are you sleeping with me tonight?"
What I really just want to ask is: "Are you sleeping with me tonight?"
What I really just want to ask is: "Are you sleeping with me tonight?"

I have good news and bad news
First the bad: "Everything comes to an end"
The whole planet is designed for it
That it will eventually burn up in the sun
And now the good, not today
There is still time for you and me
And if you want, then sleep with me tonight

The dilemma that we already know the end
Doesn't force us to not find it beautiful here
How unlikely it was that we meet here
A billion stars had to explode
Winning the lottery is ridiculous in comparison
Because there is still time for you and me
And if you want, then sleep with me tonight

What I really just want to ask is: "Are you sleeping with me tonight?"
What I really just want to ask is: "Are you sleeping with me tonight?"
What I really just want to ask is: "Are you sleeping with me tonight?"

I have good news and bad news
First the bad: "We crumble to dust"
We turn to ashes, return to the nothingness
Back from where we all once came
And now the good, not today
There is still time for you and me
And if you want, then sleep with me tonight
