BLØF "Wennen Aan September" lyrics

Translation to:en

Wennen Aan September

Ze koopt haar bloemen zelfZe hoopt dat dan de lente aan komt waaienMaar diep van binnen weet ze welDat ze verwelken in een handomdraaiDat het water troebel wordtDat ze hun hoofden laten hangen

The colour of anythingis buried underneath the smell of sunlightAnd the mon that lies beneathHides the bitter truthThat drowning in a bed of bloomsIs better than the liesThat slide from singers and the songs thatslip their teeth

Bij het vallen van de avondVerlangt hij naar een spoorVan een belofte in haar woordenDat wet hij welEn de dagen blijven rennenDe kalender is een spelHet is wennen aan septemberAl zo snel

Ze kijken naar elkaarZe vrijen met hun ogen wijder openDan ze ooit hebben gedaanVoor haar voelt het als hoopMaar ze ziet dat het voor hemMeer een kwestie is van noodzak doorDe stilte in haar stem

All the summer's falling downAnd the sun is on the groundFalling upon a pile of photographsAnd the day flame outIn the dark among the ashesOn this calender-go-rouundI got older in SeptemberAnd there's no way out

De bomen worden kaler(Autumn's coming down, around)Zijn dromen bladeren vooruit(The leaves are blowing eastward into town)Als naar het eind van een verhaalHaar warmte tevergeefs(All your life you had the things you lose)Zijn armen leger dan hij nu kan hebben(The things you keep, and all the thingsyou wish you'd never left behind)Ooit had hij het allemaal

Bij het vallen van de avondAll the summer's falling downSleept haar hart zich voortAnd her heart is on the groundZe wil terug maar gaat toch doorA breath of wind among the photographsDat weet ze welAnd the days fade outHeeft ze hem ooit leren kennen?In the dark among the endingsWaren ze wel bij elkaar?On this calendar-go-roundHet is wennen aan september....Heading west into September....And the lights go down

And the lights go downVeel te vroeg dit jaar

Getting used to September

She buys her flowers herselfShe hopes that then the Spring will become bearableBut deep from within she knows full wellThat they wither in an instantThat the water becomes turbidThat they let their heads hang

The colour of anythingis buried underneath the smell of sunlightAnd the mon that lies beneathHides the bitter truthThat drowning in a bed of bloomsIs better than the liesThat slide from singers and the songs thatslip their teeth

As the evening draws inHe longs for a traceOf a promise in her wordsHe knows that full wellAnd the days keep runningThe calendar is a gameIt's getting used to SeptemberSo quickly already

They look at each otherAnd they court with their eyes open more widelyThan they ever have been beforeFor her it feels like hopeBut she sees it for himBut a question comes from necessityDue to the stillness in her voice

All the summer's falling downAnd the sun is on the groundFalling upon a pile of photographsAnd the day flame outIn the dark among the ashesOn this calender-go-rouundI got older in SeptemberAnd there's no way out

The trees are getting barer(Autumn's coming down, around)His dreams move on(The leaves are blowing eastward into town)Like the end of a storyHer warmth in vain(all you life you had the things you lose)His arms heavier than he can lift now(The things you keep, and all the thingsyou wish you'd never left behind)Once he had it all

As the evening draws inAll the summer's falling downHer heart drags itself onAnd her heart is on the groundShe wants to go back and yet goes onA breath of wind among the photographsShe knows that full wellAnd the days fade outDid she ever get to know him?In the dark among the endingsWere they actually together?On this calendar-go-roundIt's getting used to September...Heading west into September...And the lights go down

And the lights go downFar too early this year
