Song Für Dich Lyrics in English Leolixl

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Song Für Dich by Leolixl from German to English.
You were like sugar icing on a cupcake
And we were different from the others
Almost as different as in a fairy tale
A world that belonged to us
And I trusted you more than me
There was nothing that bothered me
But suddenly everything changed
We don't sit under your window anymore
And do you still remember when I slept at your place?
Planned it together, now I'm heading off alone
I said I'd write a song for you
I didn't want it to be this one
I said I'd write a song for you
When the we breaks into a thousand pieces
I'll sing one last time
One last time a song for you
One last time a song for y-you, a song for you
I'll sing one very last time a song for you
One last time a song for y-you, a song for you
I'll sing one last time for you
We jumped out into the rushing wind
The days different from the others
'Cause we're just not there anymore
Yesterday everything, today nothing
I drink my tea all alone now
And hope someone's there for you
I said I'd write a song for you
I didn't want it to be this one
I said I'd write a song for you
When the we breaks into a thousand pieces
I'll sing one last time
One last time a song for you
One last time a song for y-you, a song for you
I'll sing one very last time a song for you
One last time a song for y-you, a song for you
Instead of one or two lines there were three, four tears
Because of five, six things I miss
Instead of one or two lines there were three, four tears
Because of five, six things I'll leave
I said I'd write a song for you
I didn't want it to be this one
I said I'd write a song for you
When the we breaks into a thousand pieces
I'll sing one last time
One last time a song for you
One last time a song for y-you, a song for you
I'll sing one very last time a song for you
One last time a song for y-you, a song for you
I'll sing one last time for you

Think of "Song Für Dich" as the musical equivalent of writing that last loving letter before sealing the envelope forever. Leolixl looks back on a romance that once felt sugary-sweet and magical — like icing letters on a cupcake or a scene from a fairy tale. She recalls secret sleepovers, carefree road trips and a private world where she trusted her partner even more than herself. Then, almost overnight, the spell fades: the two seats under the window are empty, the journey stops short, and she finds herself drinking tea alone while hoping someone else is there for the one she used to love.

The chorus adds a clever twist. Leolixl had promised, “I’ll write a song for you,” but she never guessed it would turn into a farewell track. As their "we" splinters into a thousand pieces, she trades one or two song lines for three or four tears — and finally decides to leave over five or six missing things. This is her last gift: a bittersweet, honest goodbye wrapped in melody, capturing both the ache of what’s lost and the courage to move on.
