[Verse 1]
Wanneer die donker sy kombers
When the dark wraps its blanket
Om my skouers vou
Around my shoulders
Word dit deur die son verjaag
It is chased away by the sun
Wanneer ek dink aan jou
When I think of you
My siel lê in skerwe
My soul lies in shards
My menswees breek deur die glas
My humanity breaks through the glass
Al wat nou nog oorbly
All that remains now
Is die geraamtes in die kas
Are the skeletons in the closet
[Chorus]
Jy red my van die donker
You save me from the dark
Jy tel die skerwe op
You pick up the shards
Alles bly vergete
Everything remains forgotten
Hoor jy my hart klop
Do you hear my heart beat
Jy breek my mure af
You break down my walls
Jy maak my weer heel
You make me whole again
Jy is my redding
You are my salvation
Die een wat my hart steel
The one who steals my heart
[Verse 2]
Ek verdrink in die blou
I drown in the blue
Van jou oë, smelt onder die vat
Of your eyes, melt under the touch
Van jou hand. Die reis van gister
Of your hand. The journey of yesterday
Is in die verlede, saam met jou soek ek die pad
Is in the past, with you I seek the path
Na die hede
To the present
[Chorus]
Jy red my van die donker
You save me from the dark
Jy tel die skerwe op
You pick up the shards
Alles bly vergete
Everything remains forgotten
Hoor jy my hart klop
Do you hear my heart beat
Jy breek my mure af
You break down my walls
Jy maak my weer heel
You make me whole again
Jy is my redding
You are my salvation
Die een wat my hart steel
The one who steals my heart
[Bridge]
Jy breek my kliphart oop
You break open my stone heart
En dit val soos stof
And it falls like dust
[Chorus]
Jy red my van die donker
You save me from the dark
Jy tel die skerwe op
You pick up the shards
Alles bly vergete
Everything remains forgotten
Hoor jy my hart klop
Do you hear my heart beat
Jy breek my mure af
You break down my walls
Jy maak my weer heel
You make me whole again
Jy is my redding
You are my salvation
Die een wat my hart steel
The one who steals my heart
