India.Arie - Back to the middle

Tekst :

She is
Twenty-five
Spent over half of her life
So afraid
To speak her mind
It s such a shame
Cause oh what a brilliant mind she has

And now
That she s
Been introduced to confidence
She doesn t see
That she
Is bordering on arrogance
When will she learn
To come back to the middle

He is
A young black man
Grew up without his father
And now it falls
Into his hands
To protect his mother
Cause if he doesn t
Well then who will
His older brother lives in fear
Of everything
Especially
Trying to fill his father s shoes

Respectively
They go to extremes
Of masculine and feminine
Chasing dreams
But they keep on falling
Cause they don t know no balance
When will they learn
To come back to the middle

You must take the good with the bad
And you might hit the wall
Sometimes you ll fly and sometimes you will fall
There isn t any way to avoid the pain
But it s getting burned
That s how you will learn
To come back to the middle

Instrumental Break

Needing to protect your self now that is just a part of life
If you let your fears keep you from flying
You will never reach your height
To get to the top you must come back to the middle
When will we learn
To come back to the middle

Come back to the middle
Come back to the middle
Don t make no mind about falling down
Cause it s when you re in that valley
You can see both sides more clearly

Come back to the middle

    Fliegen

    Ich schwöre, ich kann fliegen,
    denn mein Herz ist gar nicht schwer.
    Es gibt nichts, das mich am Boden hält,
    die Schwerkraft wirkt nicht mehr.

    Keine Liebe, kein Gefühl,
    kein Gewicht, das mich nach unten zieht.
    Ich lasse alles los, was um mich ist,
    ganz egal, was auch geschieht.

    Es ist nichts mehr in mir,
    ich bin...

    Das altbierlied

    Jeder Mensch der liebt nun mal stolz sein Heimatland
    Darum lieben wir ganz klar unseren rheinschen Strand
    Wo der alte Schlossturm steht da sind wir zu haus
    Weil es ohne Bier nicht geht rufen wir ganz schnell heraus

    Ja sind wir im Wald hier, wo...

    Wings beneath my wings.

    It must have been cold there in my shadow,
    to never have sunlight on your face.
    You were content to let me shine, that s your way,
    you always walked a step behind.
    So I was the one with all the glory,
    while you were the one with all the...

    True believer

    I can still remember,
    not so very long ago
    in 1977.
    We would sit and
    we ould talk about
    forever in our little house
    on Lugo.
    It was our little piece of heaven.

    We would laugh,
    we would dream,
    you d embrace me and
    make me believe.
