Herbert Grönemeyer processed the death of his wife and brother, who died within a week, with the album “Mensch” and the single of the same name. With the song he wants to tell the listeners how much he misses them.
[1th Voice 2th Voice]
[See bird sounds]
[1th Voice]
Right now is right
Right now is good
Nothing is really important
After the low tide comes the tide
At the beach of life
Without a reason, without a intellect
Is nothing in vain
I build the dreams upon the sand
And it is -
[1th Voice & 2th Voice]
It is OK
Everything is on its way
And it is sunshine time
Carefree and free
And the man is mankind
Because he forgets, because he suppress
And because he swarms and beams
Because he is like a radiator, when he speaks
And because he laughs
Because he lives
You absent
[1th Voice]
The firmament has its opening hoers
Cloudless and ocean blue
Telephone, gas, electricity
Unpaid, and it's really works too
Share with me your peace
Even if only borrowed
I do not want your love
I just want your word
And it is -
[1th Voice two times]
It is OK
Everything is on its way
And it is sunshine time
Clearly and easy
And the man is mankind
Because he can be mistaken and because he fights
And because he hopes and loves
Because he feels with other and forgives
And because he laughs
And because he lives
You absent
Oh, cause he laughs
Cause he lives
You absent
[See bird sounds]
[1th Voice two times]
Oh, it is OK
Everything is on its way
And it is sunshine time
Clearly and easy
And the man is mankind
Because he forgets, because he suppress
And because he swarms and believes
Lean himself and trusts
And because he laughs
And because he lives
You absent
Oh, it is really OK
It's hurts in a uniform way
And it is sunshine time
Without a plan , without an escort
And the man is mankind
Because he remembers and fights
And because he hopes and loves
Because he feels with other and forgives
And because he laughs
And because he lives
You absent
Oh, because he laughs
Because he lives
You absent
Ohh ohhhh lala oh
It is OK
Ohh ohhhh sha lala oh
Ohh
You absent
You absent
