Verse 1
Hello
You're standing at my door
There's nobody else here
Except you and me
Okay, come on in first
reinkommen = come in, get it
The rest happens by itself
In room four eight three
Prechorus 1
In here, it's never really day
The light comes from the minibar
And tomorrow it won't be bright here either
Welcome to the hotel
Chorus 1
We just wanted to talk
And now you're lying here
And I'm lying beside you
Talking, talking
Verse 2
Come here
We won't be disturbed
I've already sorted that out
'Don't disturb'
No matter where we are tomorrow
The world is inside here now
Lay down again
hinlegen lie down; Hinlegen = lie down
Prechorus 2
I listen to you, I see your face
Your lips part
Please speak slowly, not too fast
Welcome to the hotel
Chorus 2
We just wanted to talk
And now you're lying here
And I'm lying beside you
Talking, talking, talking
Verse 3
Alarm at the door
The whole world calls
Everyone pulls at me
I want nobody except you
Talking, talking
Chorus 3
We just wanted to talk
And now you're lying here
And I'm lying beside you
Talking, talking
Chorus 4
We just wanted to talk
And now you're lying here
And I'm lying beside you
Talking, talking, talking

SONG MEANING

Reden” (which means talking in German) invites you into a dimly lit hotel room where two people promise they only came to chat… yet quickly cross the line between words and passion.

Tokio Hotel paints a vivid scene: Room 483 becomes a sealed-off universe lit by the minibar glow, safe from ringing phones and outside demands. The repeated line Wir wollten nur reden (“We just wanted to talk”) turns ironic, showing how conversation can slip into intimacy when emotions run high. At its core, the song captures the thrill of escaping reality for a few stolen hours, highlighting both the urgency to connect and the sweet illusion that the rest of the world can wait.
