Interpretation
The lyrics of the song "Nur mit dir" by
Hildegard Knef are about the importance of a special love that is only possible with a specific person. The message of the song is that love has no routine and can only exist with that one person. Only with that person, love remains young and unbreakable, and only with them can one both hate and forgive.
The text also describes how life was before this special love. It is portrayed as lost time where one was lost. The previous love is described as a hopeless dream that let the day pass by.
The chorus emphasizes once again that love is renewed and refreshed every morning with that one person. It is pointed out that love fades if a glance overlooks it. Only with that person is it tender like a summer breeze and the "us" begins only with that person.
