"Ohne dich" (German pronunciation: [oːnə dɪʃ] "Without You") is a power ballad by German band Rammstein from the album Reise, Reise. It can be seen as expressing mourning over the loss of a loved person. The song was released as the third single from the album on 22 November 2004 in Germany (peaking at #12), Switzerland and Austria. Other countries' releases followed up from that date. It follows a slow, even romantic ballad style. The central motif is 'Without you, I cannot be..., With you, I am alone also...'
The song debuted live in its beta version in 2000, in a concert just for members of the fan club . After that, it was dropped during the 2001-2002 Mutter tour. It returned to the setlists for the 2004-2005 Reise, Reise tour, in which it was played in almost every concert, exceptions being festivals. Usually, sparks would rain over Till Lindemann during the final chorus. In those of the live shows that Apocalyptica was the support act, they played the cellos in the song. The song wasn't played in the Liebe Ist Für Alle Da tour, but it reappared for the Made In Germany 1995 - 2011 tour & Download festival 2013
"Ohne dich" is the third single from Christina Stürmer's fourth album, Lebe lauter, released in 2006. Translated, it means "Without You."

In a way it's all
A matter of time
I will not worry for you
You'll be just fine
Take my thoughts with you
And when you look behind
You will surely see a face that you recognize
You're not alone
I'll wait till the end of time
Open your mind
Surely it's plain to see
You're not alone
I'll wait till the end of time for you
Open your mind
Surely there's time to be with me...
It is the distance
That makes like a little hard
Two minds that once were close
Now so many miles apart
I will not falter though
I'll hold on till you're home
Safely back where you belong
And see how our love has grown
You're not alone
I'll wait till the end of time
Open your mind
Surely it's plain to see
You're not alone
I'll wait till the end of time for you
Open your mind
