Description
Love that always seems to be half a step behind. It promises eternity, then shatters into two pieces. Here there is tenderness in old age and eternal fights for the sake of a feeling that is still considered ‘right’. A little chaos, a little self-irony - and the heart is in repair again. But without this ineffective love, life would be too straightforward.

Lyrics and translation
Original
Love me till the end of time
Pick apart my peace of mind
Feels like running overtime
Won't someone come and change my mind
Tell me what your secrets are
I'll tell you mine and we'll get far
Feels like running overtime
Won't someone come and change my mind
My inefficient love
Again
Breaks my heart
In two pieces
My inefficient love
Some friend
Calls my name and then leaves in the end
My inefficient love
Love me till I'm old and white
Take my blood and make it right
A millions years, a million fights
But love is nearly always right
Paradise is here tonight
Would someone come and make it mine
God is tripping up my life
So who am I to start a fight?
My inefficient love
Again
Breaks my heart
In two pieces
My inefficient love
Some friend
Calls my name and then leaves in the end
My inefficient love
English translation
Love me till the end of time
Pick apart my peace of mind
Feels like running overtime
Won't someone come and change my mind
Tell me what your secrets are
I'll tell you mine and we'll get far
Feels like running overtime
Won't someone come and change my mind
My inefficient love
Again
Breaks my heart
In two pieces
My inefficient love
Some friend
Calls my name and then leaves in the end
My inefficient love
Love me till I'm old and white
Take my blood and make it right
A millions years, a million fights
But love is nearly always right
Paradise is here tonight
Would someone come and make it mine
God is tripping up my life
So who am I to start a fight?
My inefficient love
Again
Breaks my heart
In two pieces
My inefficient love
Some friend
Calls my name and then leaves in the end
My inefficient love
