Kærlighed [Mutters Alene] [English translation]

[Verse 1]

There's a saying for each situation

Always somebody who knows somebody

Who knows exactly what's best for you

There you are breaking apart

Hiding the shame from everyone

In the club, in the bar or at the coffee-shop

And slowly you drown in a river

Of your own lifeblood

You are just so infenitely all alone

Still breathing

The heart has sprung a leak

And it's cold and hard like a wind of stone

[Build]

Even though warnings in old books

Give it to us straight

Once again we'll put the hearts on call

[Refrain]

Ooh ooh, love

For some reason we'll go on

Ooh ooh, love

It lifts us up and take us down

Ooh ooh, love

For some reason we'll go on

[Verse 2]

There's a highway in soft rain

There's roadwork all the way

For all us headed home to Copenhagen

In cars, but in the same boat

While we were flying high the train has left

Now I'm sitting here crying out her name

And for each bridge I'm crossing

Life's just gettiing harder

Definately more harm than good

And what's the use of living

When you've lost what you've lived for

And the only thing left is loss

[Build]

We recede towards the bottom

And when we reach it

Once again we'll put our hearts on call

[Refrain]

Ooh ooh, love

For some reason we'll go on

Ooh ooh, love

It lifts us up and take us down

Ooh ooh, love

For some reason we'll go on

[Bridge]

On looking for happiness and the extacy of a kiss

We'll plunge off cliffs and we'll cross oceans for a kiss

For the moment where quivering lips are united

Discovering the meaning of life in a kiss

[Verse 3]

The drinks are few and far between

It's not the case with the collapses

That falls like pearls on a string

There's tearfalls, melancholy

There are days without meaning

Dear friends, there's no mercy

And it's humiliating and brutal

Hugely, deeply banal

And so heavy it's almost unbearable

And we don't even know what it is, no

Don't even know what it is

[Build]

In a fragile suit

Of dreams and ignorance

Once again we'll put our hearts on call

[Refrain]

Ooh ooh, love

For some reason we'll go on

Ooh oh, love

For some reason we'll go on

Ooh ooh, for some reason we'll go on, yes

Love

[Outro]

Yes

Ooh ooh, love

Ooh ooh, love

Ooh ooh, love

Ooh ooh, love
