The Pounding of my Heart [German translation]

It was a first new century

in 100 years

When I felt like I should cry,

I laughed away my tears,

The end of the millenium,

We waited a long long time,

To see the brave new world,

And the mountains we would climb,

The things, I've tried to comprehend,

As a child remain a mystery,

There's nothing I need to defend

There's nothing great about me

All I will ever believe,

Is the pounding of my heart though,

It doesnt answer questions,

Thats just the way it goes,

All I will ever have faith in,

Is the beating in my chest,

It won't predict tommorow,

Or give me eternal rest.

I didn't know it'd be cool

To be a detective

I had an unstoppable dream

And a life I wanted to live

Rather than making a plan

And waiting patiently

I'll remain here as a small child

Because no one else can save me

Even if I went to the end

Of the vast, expansive universe

They're things I'll never understand

There's nothing great about me

All I will ever believe,

Is the pounding of my heart though,

It doesn't answer questions,

That's just the way it goes,

All I will ever have faith in,

Is the beating in my chest,

It won't predict tomorrow,

Or give me eternal rest.

All I will ever believe,

Is the pounding of my heart though,

It doesn't answer questions,

That's just the way it goes,

All I will ever have faith in,

Is the beating in my chest,

It won't predict tomorrow,

Or give me eternal rest.
