Description
The night streets smell of warm beer and the sea, which is somewhere nearby, though not visible. The city seems to have fallen silent, but in fact it is simply breathing along with those who are not yet tired of loving. Under the streetlights, everything is mixed together - laughter, cigarette smoke, and music that no one is playing on purpose.
There is a special magic in these Istanbul nights: an ordinary bench turns into a stage, a touch into a promise, and silence into a dance. Then everything will fade into memory, but somewhere between the German “stay” and the Turkish “dear,” something that cannot be put into words will remain forever.

Lyrics and translation
Original
İstanbul'daki gecelerimiz.
Nasıl unutacağım canım?
Sokaklara tek elden bir bira alıp oturduk.
Sırtını sırtıma.
İstanbul'daki gecelerimiz.
Seninle bir dans daha.
İstanbul'daki gecelerimiz.
Bleib hier in mir für immer.
Bleib hier in mir für immer.
Hasret dolu kalbim.
Kadıköy'den Galata'ya koşturuyor beni.
Senin hakkında konuşuyor.
Sensin aklımda.
İstanbul'daki gecelerimiz.
Seninle bir dans daha.
İstanbul'daki gecelerimiz.
Bleib hier in mir für immer.
Bleib hier mit mir für immer.
English translation
Our nights in Istanbul.
How can I forget, my dear?
We bought a beer from one of the streets and sat down.
Your back to my back.
Our nights in Istanbul.
One more dance with you.
Our nights in Istanbul.
Bleib hier in mir für immer.
Bleib hier in mir für immer.
My heart is full of longing.
It makes me run from Kadıköy to Galata.
He's talking about you.
You are on my mind.
Our nights in Istanbul.
One more dance with you.
Our nights in Istanbul.
Bleib hier in mir für immer.
Bleib hier mit mir für immer.
