Lyrics and translation

Original

Let it go, let it be

Just take that flight and make a decision to leave

Oh, the soil in this maze

I want to put it in the state of grace

And we, getting older by the hour

And every year we have more fear

Oh, that the dream of a future

Mm, will slowly disappear

See me out and set me free

You've been given time, but this bird cannot leave

Oh, the love of this soil

It granted time and gave us full control

And we, getting older by the hour

Ooh-ooh-ooh, and every year we have more fear

Ooh-ooh-ooh, that the dream of a family

Ooh, will slowly disappear

In the church when we cried

Some fallen angels told us to keep our heads high

But one said, "You will burn on the stake

In the crumbled chest of kindness, your heart will break"

And we, getting older by the hour

Ooh-ooh-ooh, and every year we have more fear

Ooh-ooh-ooh, that the dream of a future

Ooh, will slowly disappear

And we, getting older by the hour

Ooh-ooh-ooh, and every year we have more fear

Ooh-ooh-ooh, that the dream of a family

Ooh, will slowly

English translation

Oh, the soil in this maze

I want to put it in the state of grace

And we, getting older by the hour

And every year we have more fear

Oh, that the dream of a future

Mm, will slowly disappear

See me out and set me free

You've been given time, but this bird cannot leave

Oh, the love of this soil

It granted time and gave us full control

And we, getting older by the hour

Ooh-ooh-ooh, and every year we have more fear

Ooh-ooh-ooh, that the dream of a family

Ooh, will slowly disappear

In the church when we cried

Some fallen angels told us to keep our heads high

But one said, "You will burn on the stake

In the crumbled chest of kindness, your heart will break"

And we, getting older by the hour

Ooh-ooh-ooh, and every year we have more fear

Ooh-ooh-ooh, that the dream of a future

Ooh, will slowly disappear

And we, getting older by the hour

Ooh-ooh-ooh, and every year we have more fear

Ooh-ooh-ooh, that the dream of a family

Ooh, will slowly
