Run
Cornelia Mooswalder Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done
And I can barely look at you
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
Cornelia Mooswalder's song "Run" is a cover of Snow Patrol's song with the same title. The song appears to be a conversation between two people, one of whom is about to leave. The person who remains sings the first verse, saying that they will sing one last time for the other person before they have to leave. The second verse is then sung by the person leaving, who tells the other person that they have been the only thing that's right in all they've done. They also express their belief that they can make it anywhere as long as they are away from where they are now.
In the chorus, the two sing together, with the first person encouraging the other person to light up as if they have a choice. They promise to be beside the other person, even if they cannot hear their voice. They then sing louder and louder as they run for their lives. The second person expresses that they understand why the other person cannot raise their voice to say that they will miss them.
The song seems to be about a difficult goodbye between two people who care about each other deeply. The first person is saying goodbye and promising to be there for the other person, even if they cannot physically be together.

I'll sing it one last time for you
This is the last chance for me to sing to you, so I want to make it count
Then we really have to go
After this moment, we will have to part ways
You've been the only thing that's right
Out of all my experiences, you have been the only consistent and positive factor
In all I've done
Throughout all of my actions and decisions
And I can barely look at you
It's hard for me to maintain eye contact with you
But every single time I do
However, every time I do, I gain confidence and hope for our future
I know we'll make it anywhere
I'm certain that we can overcome any challenge together
Away from here
As long as we're together, we can escape from any negative situation or environment
Light up, light up
Metaphorically create light in your life
As if you have a choice
Even when it seems like you have no control over your circumstances
Even if you cannot hear my voice
Even if you can't physically hear me, know that I'm there for you
I'll be right beside you dear
I'll always be there to support you
Louder louder
Let's become stronger and more confident
And we'll run for our lives
Let's escape from our problems and start fresh
I can hardly speak I understand
I empathize with how difficult this is for you, even if I can't express it well
Why you can't raise your voice to say
I understand why you might struggle to express yourself
To think I might not see those eyes
The thought of not being able to see your eyes anymore is heartbreaking
Makes it so hard not to cry
I'm struggling to hold back my tears
And as we say our long goodbye
This goodbye is difficult and painful
I nearly do
I'm close to breaking down and crying

Ich werde nie verstehen, warum sie den Song so oft gebracht hat. Dazu hat sie einfach nicht das Zeug gehabt. Der war nicht ihrs, so wie "All I want for Xmas is You"., der Song war ihrs.
