Ein guter Weg [English translation]

Give me your shoulder ¹

and hold me close to you

You don’t need to say anything,

don’t let me go

I just want to forget

everything that happens

and take refuge at your place;

I’m afraid to lose myself

Let time stand still for just a bit

and let’s keep walking this road together

Hold me close to you

Just simply be there

when life hurts

Will you stick up for me? ²

It will go on again

even if it seems futile

So many times it’s helped

when we cried together

I don’t want your pity

nor a word of truth

just a sense of home

at every new place

to block it all out,

everything around us

if the strength fails

to get on my feet again

Let time stand still for just a bit

And let’s always keep walking

this road together

Hold me close to you

Just simply be there

when life hurts

Will you stick up for me?

It will go on again

even if it seems futile

So many times it’s helped

when we cried together

Let time stand still for just a bit

And let’s keep walking this road together

Hold me close to you,

just simply be there

when life hurts

Will you stick up for me?

It will go on again

even if it seems futile

So many times it’s helped

when we cried together

Hold me close to you;

just simply be there

when life hurts

you're sticking up for me.
