Damaskus - Ulf Lundell Übersetzung ins Englische

Damaskus

Eva tnder en cigarett
Och lgger hret bakom rat
Hon sjer: Jag vet att du vill stanna hr
Men det r du som kan kra
Det r du som kan vgen
Du har varit dr
Och du sjer att ingen har
Sin egen sanning
Utan att allting bara r

Hon lgger sina hnder p bordet och ler
Och sjer: Det goda
Hur ska det kunna vinna?
Dom som jag mtt
Har bara en sak i tankarna
Och det r att vinna eller frsvinna
Du gick med mej lngs gatorna idag
Du sg detsamma som jag
Ingen vet vad som gller
Och var och en har sin egen lag

Ta mej till Damaskus
Jag r beredd, jag r klar
Med att frska skta livet sjlv
Jag vill ha ett svar
Ta mej till Damaskus
Ta mej dit ikvll
Mina sr tycks aldrig lka
Och jag frlorar varenda duell

Eva lgger undan sina bcker
Och ser ut genom fnstret
Hon sjer: Sida efter sida har jag lst
Men jag har inte hittat nt
Som bryter mnstret
Som om tiden sttt stilla
Ingenting tycks ha hnt
Vi lever i den moderna vrlden
Vi r fronten med det svarta ljuset tnt

Ta mej till Damaskus...

Damascus

Eve lights a cigarette
And puts her head behind the wheel
She says: I know you want to stop here
But you are the one who can demand
You are the one who can find the way
You have been there
And you see that no one has
Their own truth
Without everything just being

She puts her hands on the table and smiles
And says: The good
How can it win?
Those I have met
Have only one thing in mind
And that is to win or disappear
You walked with me along the streets today
You saw the same as I did
No one knows what rules
And everyone has their own law

Take me to Damascus
I am ready, I am prepared
To try to handle life alone
I want an answer
Take me to Damascus
Take me there tonight
My wounds never seem to heal
And I am losing every duel

Eve puts aside her books
And looks out the window
She says: Page after page I have read
But I have not found anything
That breaks the pattern
As if time has stood still
Nothing seems to have happened
We live in the modern world
We are the front with the black light lit

Take me to Damascus...
