Lyrics
Refrain
Es gaht nüm lang
bis di zrugg han
i mine arm scho so lang
isch sie wegg vo mir
Distanz macht eusi liebi ich bi da und du deht
d sehnsucht zeigt wasi vo nächem nöd gseh
wet di da ha doch ich weiss du bisch deht
s langet nüm wänni schrieb und nüme wänni red
s hät soviel woni nur mit dir verbind
meh als eimal am tag chunsch mer wieder in sinn
drum weissi genau dassi dich nöd namal find
es cha nüm lang gah bis i wieder zrugg bi dir bin
Refrain
Es gaht nüm lang
bis di zrugg han
i mine arm scho so lang
isch sie wegg vo mir
Häsch mer gseit dem woni fühl muessi nah gah
gisch mer de glaube dassi nöd nah lah
bisch die frau woni lieb drum muesch en ma ha
ich weiss wil i sowas no nie gha ha
s gat nach eus und nüme nu nach mir
chunsch nächer jedi tüür woni passier
wänni bin dänn bliebi mal bi dir
baby girl me want you near
Refrain
Es gaht nüm lang
bis di zrugg han
i mine arm scho so lang
isch sie wegg vo mir
So long (english translation)
​
Distance makes our heart grow fonder i’m here you are there
My longing shows me things i couldn't see
I want you close still i know you are not here
Wheter letters nor words can now talk
There is so much reminding me of you
More than once a day my mind goes to you
That's why i know i won't find no one like you
I can't be long for you to be here with me again
It won't be long
For me to have you back in my arms
It has been so long
You were away from me
It won't be long
For me to have you back in my arms
It has been so long
You were away from me
You told me i should follow my heart
You give me faith that i won't let loose
you are the woman i love
I want to be the man on your side
I know cause i never had this before
It's about us not only about me
You're getting closer with every door i'm passing
When i'm there i will stay for a while
Baby girl i want you near
chorus
So Lang
Mitem herz vomene loi
Lauf durs land und blieb mer troi
S het nüt woni bereu
Vieles chunt und gaht doch nüt isch neu
Alles isch scho lang deht nume d frag wemmers gseht
De zyklus isch rund wie de planet
Irgendwenn findi mi deht drum luegi wasi red
S wort isch de same woni spread
Deda chunt vo wiet her
Mitem geist vo alte ziite
Lebed traditione wieter
Youthman leb uf will d ziit isch schwer
Refrain
Ich gseh sie falle de priis wirdi nöd zahle
Clean up the sound und bring roots id dancehalle
Nume zum gfalle de welt verfalle
Doch de weg gangi nöd drum zeigne mini chralle
chunt vo wiit her
Mitem geist vo alte ziite
Lebed traditione wieter
Youthman leb uf wil d ziit isch schwer
HERZ VOMENE LOI
Love through the music
