Unter Die Haut Lyrics in English Tim Bendzko , Cassandra Steen

Home / Lyrics Translation / Tim Bendzko / Unter Die Haut

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Unter Die Haut by Tim Bendzko from German to English.

That gets under my skin

Like a warm summer wind

At first, I didn't believe

That I'm not alone here

In essence, we were

Already trained for loneliness

And ignored every hint

With a sledgehammer

We barricade ourselves with all the empty shells

And the empty shells block us

The view of a life we once aspired to

But we hold on to it

That gets under my skin

Like a warm summer wind

At first, I didn't believe

That I'm not alone here

That gets under my skin

That we are connected

It keeps pulling me straight ahead

Until I'm home

Under the skin

Because everything we are

Gives empty words their meaning

Under the skin

No matter how it sounds

Because you also sing our songs without words

Under the skin

Do you feel it too, leave everything as it is

Come, let's break out

Under the skin

That's all I need

When I'm safe, you'll definitely feel it

That gets under my skin

Like a warm summer wind

At first, I didn't believe

That I'm not alone here

That gets under my skin

That we are connected

It keeps pulling me straight ahead

Until I'm home

That gets under my skin

Like a warm summer wind

At first, I didn't believe

That I'm not alone here

That gets under my skin

Like a warm summer wind

At first, I didn't believe

That I'm not alone here

That gets under my skin

That we are connected

It keeps pulling me straight ahead

Until I'm home

SONG MEANING

Tim Bendzko and Cassandra Steen invite you into a tender pop duet where every note feels like a warm summer wind. “Unter Die Haut” (literally Under the Skin) paints the moment you realise you are no longer walking through life alone. Two voices trade lines about shedding the empty shells we build around ourselves, letting genuine connection slip right under our defenses and straight to the heart.

Loneliness once felt normal, the singers confess, but meeting a kindred spirit changes everything. Their newfound bond pulls them “immer weiter geradeaus” ‒ ever forward ‒ until they finally feel at home. It is a celebration of trust, vulnerability, and the quiet joy of knowing someone can sing your song even when you run out of words. Listen closely and you might feel that same gentle push to drop your guard, follow the breeze, and discover where “home” truly is.
