Kreise English translation
von Johannes Oerding

Beginning and end are often the same point
Since our birth the same blood that runs through our vanes
We start freezing at the same time every year
We blow circles in the air till the smoke blows away
Hold onto each other when the earth does pirouettes
And we turn along with the clock-hand

Ey, when everything moves in circles
Then you go left and I go right
And eventually our paths will cross
When we see each other again
Ey, when everything moves in circles
Then you go left and I go right
But the both of us aren't stopping
Until we see each other again


The compass draws onto an empty piece of paper every day
And the moon takes over the sun every night
Again I ask myself what's happening around you right now
Poetry on the wall in the men's bathroom
Don't hold onto what you love, let it go
And if it comes back to you, it's yours

Ey, when everything moves in circles
Then you go left and I go right
And eventually our paths will cross
When we see each other again
Ey, when everything moves in circles
Then you go left and I go right
But the both of us aren't stopping
Until we see each other again

No matter how far we stray from each other
I still see us on the boards
(Still see us)
No matter how far apart we are
We got the same central point


Ey, when everything moves in circles
Then you go left and I go right
And eventually our paths will cross
When we see each other again
Ey, when everything moves in circles
Then you go left and I go right
And eventually our paths will cross
When we see each other again
Ey, when everything moves in circles
Then you go left and I go right
But the both of us aren't stopping
Until we see each other again
