So Ist Es Immer

That's How It Always Is

So Ist Es Immer

Chairs are very close togetherDie Stühle liegen sehr eng
We talk all night longWir reden die ganze Nacht lang
This small room is not badDieser niedrige Raum ist nicht schlecht
We can understand each other wellWir können uns gut verstehen

That's how it always is, our light is just thatSo ist es immer, unser Licht ist nur das
Drinking and singing, we welcome tomorrowTrinken und Singen wir begrüßen morgen
That's how it always is, under the vast skySo ist es immer, unterm riesigen Himmel
We live together, the night is longLeben wir zusammen, die Nacht ist lang
Since the stars don't shineDa die Sterne nicht leuchten
The moon can't shine on this cityKann der Mond auf diese Stadt nicht scheinen
We looked at the light ourselvesSchauten wir das Licht selbst an
Singing under the sea of starsSingen wir unter dem Sternenmeer

Chairs so close and room so smallChairs so close and room so small
You and I talk all night longYou and I talk all the night long
Meagre this space but serves us so wellMeagre this space but serves us so well

We drink and we sing when our fighting is doneWe drink and we sing when our fighting is done
And it's always, so we live under the burnt cloudsAnd it's always, so we live under the burnt clouds
