| The turtle and the scorpion, the riverbank the deal
|
| To cross the open water they mutually agreed
|
| Out there in the distance, the other side in sight
|
| Banking on forever, holding on for life
|
| I can see the other side
|
| I want to see the other side
|
| Somewhere in the middle the truth is hard to find
|
| I’m running round in circles; |
| I find I’m running blind
|
| Praying for the distance, praying for more time
|
| Running round in circles, running out of time
|
| Manchmal, I often think of you
|
| Manchmal, I want to see it through
|
| Manchmal, I should feel something more inside
|
| Manchmal, I want to reach the other side
|
| I’m swimming, I’m swimming!
|
| The point of grave decision, no turning back this time
|
| No sense of reluctance, no doubt in my mind
|
| Except that nagging feeling, the thought that it might fail
|
| The bullet’s in the chamber, the sting is in the tail
|
| Manchmal, I only think of you
|
| Manchmal, could we see it through?
|
| Manchmal, there is something left inside?
|
| Manchmal, my nature cannot hide!
|
| I can see where we’re going; |
| I can see how you feel
|
| I can sense you’re going to leave me, I know you’ll break the deal
|
| I’ll drown in my sorrows and I’ll drink at your shrine, manchmal
|
| Is that the way that you see it, tell me how it should be
|
| It’s time to choose between the devil and the deep blue see
|
| Manchmal, Manchmal
|
| Manchmal, there’s something stirring deep inside
|
| Manchmal, a chance to come alive
|
| Manchmal, manchmal
|
| It’s time to choose between the open water and your dreams
|
| Time you faced reality, time you faced your fears
|
| Manchmal, it’s different this time
|
| Manchmal, manchmal, it’ll be different this time
|
| Manchmal, manchmal
|
| Jedesmal |
