Nur Für Dich Lyrics in English Wise Guys

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Nur Für Dich by Wise Guys from German to English.
Verse 1
I only went to see Bridget Jones with you
I only started jogging for you
I only walked through that park for hours for you
I only ate low-fat fruit quark for you
I only wore Birkenstock sandals in summer for you
Really just for you. I even had to pay for them!
I only claimed to hate Heidi Klum for you
Just for you! And you still dumped me
Chorus 1
Just for you, I did that only for you
Just for you. You totally knocked me off track
Just for you I was more faithful than Olli Kahn!
Just for you. That's what they call relationship mania
Verse 2
I was at the Christmas market only for you
I only read through 'Harry Potter' for you
I only scrubbed the toilet every day for you
Just for you. And what good did it do me?
I only swore off booze for you
I only torched my Playboy collection for you
I even wrote a love song just for you!
Just for you. And you still didn't stay
Chorus 2
Just for you, this song used to be yours
That's what it is now
But not anymore, 'cause from now on it's mine
Chorus 2
I've rewritten it a bit
And that makes me happy!
Chorus 2
Now it's just for me and goes roughly like this
Verse 3
I only said, just for you
Your blue dress was nice
Verse 3
That was a lie
Your butt looked unusually fat!
Verse 3
At parking you're the biggest loser ever
When your computer crashes
Just look in the Yellow Pages
Verse 3
You can easily use toothbrushes for two
Or three years
Verse 3
'Sex and the City' you can smoke in a pipe
Besides you only old aunties really drink sherry
The most beautiful woman in the world is clearly Halle Berry
Chorus 3
Just for you, this song used to be yours
That's what it is now
But not anymore, 'cause from now on it's mine
Chorus 3
I've changed the melody too and that makes me happy
I'll sing it once more just for you, 'cause now it sounds like this
Outro
Na na na na na Na na na na na na!
Pffrr!

SONG MEANING

“Nur Für Dich” is a hilarious musical roller-coaster about the things we do for love – and what happens when all that effort still isn’t enough. In the first half, the singer rattles off a long list of ridiculous sacrifices he made only for his partner: jogging at dawn, choking down low-fat yogurt, pretending to hate Heidi Klum, even torching his Playboy magazines. Each line grows more over-the-top, painting a comic picture of someone who bends his entire life to fit another person’s wishes.

Then comes the twist: she dumps him anyway. Stung but suddenly liberated, he grabs the very love song he had written for her and rewrites it on the spot. The sweet lyrics turn into cheeky insults about her parking skills, fashion sense, and Sherry-sipping habits. By flipping the song from devotion to mockery, he reclaims his voice and reminds us that self-respect beats self-sacrifice. Under the Wise Guys’ playful a-cappella style, the track becomes a comedic anthem for anyone who’s ever bent too far in a relationship – and finally snapped back with a grin.
