Hochzeit [English translation]

[Part 1]

When this life gets my feet back on the ground

That won't be a bad idea

To me, it's not a matter of time but a matter of subject

And probably best for you if you go

Cut my strings, snap my wings

See what you want to see

Just believe their lies, play me for a fool

Tell me you don't love me

But keep your eyes open

I know your way

[Hook]

And now I'm running across this street

I'm gonna stop this wedding

No matter what

I see you and him

Don't do it, I beg of you

Don't say "I do"

The two of us could run away

Don't do it, don't do it

[Part 2]

If I had one more day to live

I'd pray for your pretty face

But if anybody (else) is allowed to touch you

Yes, I swear by God

I can't guarantee for anything

And if half the city asks me where you are

Yes, then I'm gonna lie for you and say you're gone

And when they ask how this could happen

I say, maybe it was an accident

Maybe it was murder

Ah, here's to you, here's to him

I look at your veil

And would like to turn it into a rope for me

Here's to your future, your first child

Here's to your house, this is ironic but I'm drowning in applause

Or here's to you taking my hand now

To running far away, even though it sounds risky

I want to love on shaky knees, I want a throbbing heart and the time of our lives

I'm still standing here, I'm not ready to leave yet

[Hook]

And now I'm running across this street

I'm gonna stop this wedding

No matter what

I see you and him

Don't do it, I beg of you

Don't say "I do"

The two of us could run away

Don't do it, don't do it
