Der Junge, der rennt [English translation]

Everybody's eyes focused on me

Holding my breath

At the starting signal I'll be right gone

I am the boy who runs

Every fiber of my body

Is ready for the takeoff

I'm only waiting for the starting shot

The boy who never stays

Always have to be in motion

Always have to be in motion

I'd love to take a decision

But I'm the boy who runs

Always have to be in motion

Always have to be in motion

On my own again for the last yards

The boy who runs

I'm living in the fast lane

But never arrive

The moving boxes aren't emptied yet

I'm a stranger in my own city

I'm the first one to finish

But the last one on the train

There's nobody who really knows me

I am the boy who runs

Always have to be in motion

Always have to be in motion

I'd love to take a decision

But I'm the boy who runs

Always have to be in motion

Always have to be in motion

On my own again for the last yards

The boy who runs

Always have to be in motion

Always have to be in motion

I'd love to take a decision

But I'm the boy who runs

Always have to be in motion

Always have to be in motion

On my own again for the last yards

The boy who runs

Once more breezing in deeply

Taking a last look behind me

There's nobody who really knows me

I am the boy who runs
