In Trance
Scorpions Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wake up in the morning
And the sun begins to shine
The day did sneak up on the night
I see your face and I see myself
And I get a little taste of life
I try to stand it for a while

But I'm in a trance
Hey baby, tell me, can't you hear me calling?
I'm in a trance
I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey, hey
Hey baby, tell, me can't you hear me calling?
I'm in a trance
I want to try to stop this life

I feel so sad I'm feeling down
On the radio the music plays
I'm in love with her and I feel fine
I close my eyes, I think today is getting better with a sip of wine
And I can stand it for a while

When I'm in a trance
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance
I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey, hey
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance
I want to try to stop this life

I'm in a trance
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance
I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey, hey
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling




I'm in a trance
I want to try to stop this life

Line by Line Meaning

I wake up in the morning
I start a new day


And the sun begins to shine
The day is starting and the sunshine is visible


The day did sneak up on the night
The day took over from the night almost imperceptibly


I see your face and I see myself
When I see you, it feels like looking into a mirror


And I get a little taste of life
Seeing you gives me a taste of living and being alive


I try to stand it for a while
I try to hold on to this feeling for a little bit longer


But I'm in a trance
I'm lost in a state of dream-like consciousness


Hey baby, tell me, can't you hear me calling?
I'm trying to reach out to you, can you hear my call?


I take too much in the Saturday night
On Saturdays I usually exceed my limit


I want to try to stop this life
I want to try to end this cycle of excessive behavior


I feel so sad I'm feeling down
I'm experiencing emotions of sadness and depression


On the radio the music plays
Music plays and provides a background for my thoughts


I'm in love with her and I feel fine
I'm in love with someone and it makes me feel happy


I close my eyes, I think today is getting better with a sip of wine
I take a moment to consider my day and a glass of wine helps me relax


When I'm in a trance
I lose consciousness and become deeply absorbed in my thoughts


I want to try to stop this life
I want to try to end this pattern of behavior that leads me to excess

"In Trance"

I wake up in the morning
and the sun begins to shine
the day did sneak up on the night
I see your face and I see myself
and I get a little taste of life
I try to stand it for a while

But I'm in a trance
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance
I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey... Hey
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance
I wanna try to stop this life

I feel so sad I'm feeling down
On the radio the music plays
I'm in love with her and I feel fine
I close my eyes
I think today is getting better with a sip of wine
and I can stand it for a while

When I'm in a trance
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance
I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey... Hey
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance
I wanna try to stop this life

I'm in a trance
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me caling
I'm in a trance
I take too much in the Saturday night
Hey...Hey
Hey baby tell me can't you hear me calling
I'm in a trance
I wanna try to stop this life

One of the best heavy metal song of all time!

@strangersound

One of the best solos ever. Old school Scorpions is super underrated. 

@Escarpialetto

The original Scorpions remain my favorite band and will be forever. Perfection.
