An Elephant for You- By Wir Sind Helden

I see us both, you are much too heavy
for my arms but I won’t let you down
I know your monsters are just like mine
and one is better off not to remain alone with them
and I know, I know but I don’t ask
hold on tight to me, get on, i’ll carry you

I’ll be huge for you
An elephant for you
I’ll carry you for miles
over the land
and I

Carry you as far as I can
I carry you as far as I can
At the end of the way, if I must
I carry you
I carry you over the river

One who shouldn’t cries on the telephone
And one who doesn’t want to
Cries and knows already
Your legs don’t carry you as far as they should
Very often go the the ones
Who didn’t want to go away

And I know, I know but I can’t bear it
Hold on tight to me, get on, i’ll carry you

I don't regret buying the whole CD for just one song. I have a new favorite now and it's Ein Elefant Für Dich !!! So I wish you the best with your quest for the CD :-) I bought the CD Von Hier an Blind a few weeks ago because of the 1st song “Wenn Es Passiert”. they used it in The Netherlands during the compilations of the soccer matches during this summer in Germany.

I was trying to puzzle out the German before I looked down to see what you wrote. Most excellent. This reminds me of a girl I dated.... What an excellent translation!
