Long Way
Nu Pagadi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Long way into my heart

Frag mich jetzt nicht, warum du hier liegst
Wieso alles ist, wie es gerade ist.

Sieh mich nicht an
Spürst du die Angst, dass ich nicht mehr atmen kann.
Ich halt es kaum aus, mein Herz ist betäubt
Weil es bereut und die Liebe scheut.

Rühr mich an, dass ich etwas spür
Komm nicht zu nah, sei einfach nur hier... neben mir.

It's a long way into my heart
From the first day right from the start
No words to say just kiss me and stay
'Cause you're already in my head
But it's a long way... Into my heart

It's a long way into my heart

Did you really think that for your blue eyes
I would make you sacrifice
Did you really think I would give you
My routinity

It means to me
That we should be
Together for ever

It's a long way into my heart
From the first day right from the start
No words to say just kiss me and stay (kiss me and stay)
'Cause you're already in my head

Traust du dich wirklich auf den Weg bis tief in mein Herz
Noch ist es für dich nicht zu spät besieg deinen Schmerz
Und wir kommen uns näher Tag für Tag

But it's a long way into my heart





It's a long way into my heart

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Nu Pagadi's Long Way delve into the complexities of romantic relationships, particularly the emotional distance and fear that can come with diving deep into one's heart. The opening lines suggest confusion and uncertainty, with the singer questioning the circumstances that led them to be lying down alongside their partner. There is a sense of intimacy but also underlying anxiety, with the fear that the singer might not be able to breathe if they are left alone. The following lines reveal that their heart is numb, likely as a result of past pain and trauma, and they are unsure if they can handle exploring love again. The singer seeks comfort in physical touch, but not the kind that would lead to further emotional investment.


The chorus talks about the vast distance between the singer's head and heart, emphasizing that it's not just about physical proximity but rather a deep-rooted emotional connection that takes time to form. The fear of sacrifice comes up in the second verse, where the singer questions whether their partner's blue eyes are reason enough to give up their routine and possibly risk getting hurt again. They express a desire for a lifetime commitment and for the couple to come closer gradually day by day, but acknowledge that it's still a long and uncertain journey.


Overall, the lyrics of Long Way capture the hesitance and vulnerability that can come with falling in love after experiencing heartbreak, and the importance of taking it slow and building trust over time.
