Ich Will Nur Dass Du Weißt Lyrics in English SDP , Adel Tawil

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ich Will Nur Dass Du Weißt by SDP from German to English.
All my friends say "Keep your hands off her"
Cause I'm hardly bearable anymore, I keep talking about you
Cause you're online but you don't write
And I slam the desk
Wonder if you're alone right now
Or are you feeling the same?
Cause every time you sit across from me
And you touch me
I feel like it's just like it used to be
I just want you to know
How often I write letters to you
And tear them up again
And that I love you and that kinda sh*t
I just want you to know
How often I write songs for you
And show them to nobody
Cause I want nobody to know about it
And I type texts but I don't send them
I've checked so often if you're online
I was at your door, I just didn't knock
I just wanted to see if someone was there with you
All my friends advise
To knock you outta my head
They don't even know what they're saying
Forgetting you takes years
And I hardly go outside anymore
Cause I see couples everywhere
And if some other girl wears your name
then it nearly takes my breath away
Every time a woman wears your perfume
I imagine for a moment
That you're standing right in front of me
I just want you to know
How often I write letters to you
And tear them up again
And that I love you and that kinda sh*t
I just want you to know
How often I write songs for you
And show them to nobody
Cause I want nobody to know about it
And I type texts but I don't send them
I've checked so often if you're online
I was at your door, I just didn't knock
I just wanted to see if someone was there with you
I just want you to know
How often I write letters to you
And tear them up again
And that I love you and that kinda sh*t
I just want you to know
How often I write songs for you
And show them to nobody
Cause I want nobody to know about it
And I type texts but I don't send them
I've checked so often if you're online
I was at your door, I just didn't knock
I just wanted to see if someone was there with you

SONG MEANING

"Ich Will Nur Dass Du Weißt" is a snapshot of modern heartbreak: the narrator is hopelessly stuck on an ex, scrolling through chats, stalking online status, and replaying memories like a broken record. Friends say “Get over her!” but he is glued to his phone, imagining her perfume in the street and hearing her name everywhere. The song captures that familiar mix of nostalgia and obsession, where every buzz of the phone could be the message that changes everything.

Instead of moving on, he writes letters he never sends, songs no one will hear, and stands outside her door too nervous to knock. This secret ritual of unsent words shows how hard it can be to let go when love is unreturned. SDP and Adel Tawil wrap these raw emotions in a catchy, anthemic chorus, turning private pain into a sing-along confession that many listeners will recognize instantly.
