Sometimes...A Nightsong
Atrocity Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I feel so deep
Die Nacht ruft nach mir
Sometimes I feel so weak
Ich flüster' zu Dir

Night by night
Nacht für Nacht
Close and far
und doch so nah

Sometimes I feel so sad
Ich atme die Nacht
Sometimes I feel so black
Doch mein Körper erwacht

When the night is calling me
Ich sehe Dein Gesicht
When the night is calling me
Im dunklen Schattenlicht

Atmosphere
Der Weg zu Dir
Take me there
Ich will mehr

Sometimes I feel so close
Ich umarme Dich
Sometimes I feel so mad
Und ich werde verrückt

When the night is calling me
Ich sehe Dein Gesicht
When the night is calling me
Im dunklen Schattenlicht

When the night is calling me
Ich sehe Dein Gesicht
When the night is calling me
Wie es zerbricht

When the night is calling me
Ich sehe Dein Gesicht
When the night is calling me
Im dunklen Schattenlicht

When the night is calling me
Seh' ich Dein Gesicht




When the night is calling me
Wie es zerbricht
