In the hurdle race over a thousand ifs and buts
instead of straight to an unknown goal.
I'm in my own way again
Where is a place to rest in this game without borders?
I think too much about the day after tomorrow
Think too much about me,
I've changed my view to now and here and you
and you do this:
You fix me 1 with your sparkling pearly eyes,
It does me good, there's so much for me there.
It helps much more than any speech, any thought
Only feeling, only touching makes sense now.
The waves are almost closing over our heads
but with you in the boat I'll suffer any rough sea
The wind whips in my face again
but with you behind me it hurts half as much
Don't leave me alone with myself
Let me into you
I want to feel so much, you and now and here,
and what do you do?
You fix me with your sparkling pearly eyes,
It does me good, there's so much for me there.
It helps much more than any speech, any thought
Only feeling, only touching makes sense now.
It's like a balsam, like a real little miracle,
it heals much better than any medicine
Come and hold me
Hold me tight and squeeze me
as tight as you can
You fix me with your sparkling pearly eyes...
1. dictionary has "glare" but that seems too negative
