(EN) Like The First Date

I leave when you’re still asleep tight,
I'm silently sliding out the door.
I’m counting stops on the bus ride,
Like a thousand times before!
I’m back home worn out, plain aching,
Appear tired, shirt full of dust,
Then I see you standing there, waiting for me,
And the whole hard day turns to past!

You've got that look that pulls me in!
One soft smile, and I’m alive again!
All that weight falls off my chest,
Come closer now!
I'll do my best to be the best!

Meet me in the evening,
Like it’s our first date!
Meet me in the evening,
Let the hard day break!
Meet me in the evening,
I'll forget the pain!
Meet me in the evening
Say my name again!

You’ve got tea on the stove, slow steaming,
Hair still up, bare feet on tile,
I drop my bag by the hallway,
And you hit me with that quiet smile!
You ask, “How was it?” and I sigh deep,
You don’t need the whole review!
One touch from your hand on my shoulder
And now I’m happy to get home to you!

You've got that look that pulls me in!
One soft smile, and I’m alive again!
All that weight falls off my chest,
Come closer now!
I'll do my best to be the best!

Meet me in the evening,
Like it’s our first date!
Meet me in the evening,
Let the hard day break!
Meet me in the evening,
I'll forget the pain!
Meet me in the evening
Say my name again!

I left the world outside the door,
Let it wait, let it wait!
I don’t need much more,
Just your arms I dreamed about the whole day!
When I come home low,
You lift me high!
Every little trouble I own
Disappears, fades out of sight!

Meet me in the evening,
Like it’s our first date!
Meet me in the evening,
Let the hard day break!
Meet me in the evening,
I'll forget the pain!
Meet me in the evening
Say my name again!
