Lyrics & Translation

[English]
In and out, and out and in
And up and down and all around
We're going through it, nothing to it
All you've got to do is do it
Going through the motions
One, two, three, four
I go, you go, you go, me go
Everywhere that we go, we'll be
Going through the motions
One, two, three, four
One, two
Going through the motions
Yeah, we're going through the motions
I don't really care 'cause you're going nowhere
You've got nothing but fear in your eyes
You're leading me on, but you can be anyone
'Cause I know you'll be gone when I rise
And we're going through the motions
And we're going through the motions
And we're going through the motions
Going through the motions
Staying with you gave us something to do
I always thought it was true for a while
You're loving your lies, you're so thinly disguised
You couldn't tell right from wrong if you tried
And we're going through the motions
(Yeah) we're going through the motions
(When we was) going through the motions
Going through the motions
To thee I'll dedicate this photograph
I'll even sign it 'love to you', again
And when it's faded and forgotten in some book
You'll sometimes look (you'll sometimes look)
You'll sometimes look (you'll sometimes look)
You'll sometimes look
...
It's a game, it's a game
No, let's call it a shame
'Cause there's no one to blame, it's a pain
You were a friend for a day, so don't cry if I say
That you got what you want, it's okay
And we're going through the motions
(Yeah) we're going through the motions
And we're going through the motions
We're just going through the motions
And we're going through the motions
We're just going through the motions
And we're going through the motions
Going through the motions
In and out, and out and in
And up and down and all around
We're going through it, nothing to it
All you've got to do is do it
Going through the motions
And are we going through the motions
I go, you go, you go, me go
Everywhere that we go, we'll be
Going through the motions (yeah, yeah)
Going through the motions (eh, yeah-yeah)
Going through the motions
Yeah, eh, yeah, yeah
Going through the motions (in and out, and out and in)
And up and down and all around
We're going through it, nothing to it
All you've got to do is do it
Going through the motions
One, two, three, four
I go, you go, you go, me go
Everywhere that we go, we'll be
Going through the motions
One, two
