Über sieben Brücken [English translation]

Sometimes I walk along the street without looking

Sometimes I wish I had my rocking horse back

Sometimes I go without a break

Sometimes I close all the doors behind me

Sometimes I am cold and sometimes hot

Sometimes I don't know anymore what I know

Sometimes I'm already tired in the morning

And then I seek comfort in a song

[Refrain:]

Across seven bridges you must go

To survive seven dark years

Seven times you will be ashes

But once also the bright glow

Sometimes the clock of life seems to stand still

Sometimes it seems we're always just going in circles

Sometimes we're ill as though from wanderlust

Sometimes we sit still on a bench

Sometimes we reach for the whole world

Sometimes we think that our lucky star is falling

Sometimes we take when we'd rather give

Sometimes we hate what we also love

[Refrain 3x]

But once also the bright glow
