Nope, at least not as wacky as your Sarie Marijs version :)

Not quite.

You left me in doubt so I connected ye ol' grammophone and dusted of His
Majesty's Greatest Hits album, but really... He sings a whole refrain and a
couple more lines in (some sort of) German!

<STRONG>Wooden heart/Muss i denn</STRONG>

Can't you see I love you
Please don't break my heart in two
That's not hard to do
Cos I don't have a wooden heart

And if you say goodbye
Then I know that I will cry
Maybe I would die
Cos I don't have a wooden heart

There's no strains upon this love of mine
It was always you from the start
Treat me nice, treat me good
Treat me like you really should
Cos I'm not made of wood
And I don't have a wooden heart

       Muss i denn, muss i denn
 (\/)  Zum "Staedtele" hinaus
  \/   "Staedtele" hinaus
       Und du mein Schatz bleibst hier.

Muss i denn, muss i denn
Zum "Staedtele" hinaus
"Staedtele" hinaus
Und du mein Schatz bleibst hier.

There's no strains upon this love of mine
It was always you from the start
Sei mir gut, sei mir gut
Sei mir wie du wirklich sollst
wie du wirklich sollst
Cos I don't have a wooden heart.

<I>by Wise, Weisman and Twomey</I>
