Nina Chuba - Zeit (English Translation) Lyrics

[Intro]
Time

[Verse 1]
Heart heavy, home
Jacket zipped, it's cold right now
I think of you when I was little
No one knew me like you did

[Pre-Chorus]
Over there, these two who walk in the rain
Look just like us
As if you were still here
I never trained for the run of events

[Chorus]
Make the time stand still, tell it we'll talk later
It lurks around every corner once it's seen you, yeah
Slips like sand through your fingers, a rеal dirty trick
Do you feel how you scare everyonе, always have scared everyone?
Make the time stand still, drive off, we'll meet somewhere else
Back to where I knew you, where you still really knew me, yeah
Our last summer, no-sleep era, morning sun on your veranda (Time)
I'll always be thankful for it, even though it scares me so much

[Verse 2]
Bittersweet like stevia
You and me in sepia
Our faces more wrinkled
I look at old pictures, I'm immediately close to tears
Forgotten, faded, gone, man, I never wanted that
No one stays forever, this is the damn peak
And where our meadow used to be
It's asphalt instead of grass, yeah, now it's just delivery vans rushing past
The sun sits low, my shadows grow longer
And I miss you so much it hurts everything
Dreaming just once more of "nothing ever changed"
Your laugh familiar – retro
[Pre-Chorus]
Over there, these two who walk in the rain
Look just like us
As if you were still here
I never trained for the run of events

[Chorus]
Make the time stand still, tell it we'll talk later
It lurks around every corner once it's seen you, yeah
Slips like sand through your fingers, a real dirty trick
Do you feel how you scare everyone, always have scared everyone?
Make the time stand still, drive off, we'll meet somewhere else
Back to where I knew you, where you still really knew me, yeah
Our last summer, no-sleep era, morning sun on your veranda (Time)
I'll always be thankful for it, even though it scares me so much

[Outro]
Time
