Lyric discussion by seasons of grey 

Cover art for Zum Meer lyrics by Herbert Grönemeyer

English translation: Who planned, wanted you, ordered and picked you up Who lost his heart to you Why were you born Who bore you

Who longed for you Who leaned you against himself, accepted you as you are so you'd no longer be homesick so you'd no longer be homesick

Turn around Turn around Turn your back to the storm You'll find reconciliation, you'll prevail (and) free yourself for the way to the sea

Who will replace your program Only he who can fall, can also fly Who'll help you learn to trust (and) not to become estranged from yourself, (and) not to become estranged from yourself

Turn around Turn around Forget your guilt, your vacuum turn the wind until it brings you far to the sea You know where to

Turn around Turn around Turn your back to the storm go relaxed, reconciled, strengthened (in your conviction), self-liberated the way to the sea self-liberated the way to the sea self-liberated on the way to the sea
