[English]

Each and every day hiding from the sunshine

wandering in the shade not too old, not too young

Every night again dancing with the moonlight

somewhere far away I can hear your call...

(I’m) Out of my head of my heart and my mind

'cause you can run but you can't hide

I'm gonna make you mine

Out of my head of my heart and my mind

'cause I can feel how your flesh now is crying out for more.

Ain't no fairytale what I see in your eyes

awaiting your mistake not too close, not too far

sneaking in the pain every truth becomes lie

I won't trust myself once I hear your call...

(I'm) Out of my head of my heart and my mind

'cause you can run but you can't hide

I'm gonna make you mine

Out of my head of my heart and my mind

'cause I can feel how your flesh now is crying out for more.

(I'm) Out of my head of my heart and my mind

Out of my head of my heart and my mind

(I'm) Out of my head of my heart and my mind

'cause you can run but you can't hide

I'm gonna make you mine

Out of my head of my heart and my mind

'cause I can feel how your flesh now is crying out for more.
