Lyrics & Translation

[English]
I've never been running so far, so immense far
When will I fall into your arms?
I want to try and stand the pain
Of my long-time-hurting-feet
And what about you, you drunken soul
Is that your own will to go?
On and on until I die
Or are you going to give up now?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
To give up now?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
To give up now?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
To give up now?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I've never run so real, so immense real
When will I fall into your heart?
I want to try and stand the pain
Of my long-time-hurting-feet
And what about you, you drunken soul
Is that your own will to go?
On and on until I die
Or are you going to give up now?
I've never run so far, so immense far, when will I fall into your arms
I want to try and stand the pain
Of my long-time-hurting-feet
And what about you, you drunken soul
Is that your own will to go?
On and on until I die
Or are you going to give up now?
I've never been running so far, so immense far
When will I fall into your arms?
I want to break those circle-rules
I want to dance the waltz with you
And what about you, you drunken soul
Is that your own will to go?
On and on until I die
Or are you going to give up now?
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
E-e-e-e-e-e-e
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
E-e-e-e-e-e-e
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
E-e-e-e-e-e-e
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
E-e-e-e-e-e-e
I have never run so real
I have never run so real
I have never run so real, so immense real
When will I fall into your heart?
I want to try and stand the pain
Of my long-time-hurting-feet
And what about you, you drunken soul
Is that your own will to go?
On and on until I die
Or are you going to give up now?
