Du Bleibst Lyrics in English Clueso

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Du Bleibst by Clueso from German to English.
I pull you into my arms again and let it happen
No matter where you go or what you do
You stay
You stay
We were both still young
We had to learn to love first
We hardly ever fought, it was like peace on earth
So fitting that I'm losing my breath now
I thank you for that series of wonderful years with you
You always had that idea, I mean, you won't give it up
You want to see more of the world, live your dream
I wake up with a heavy heart and hear you singing in the shower
And I don't want to be the one who takes you to the airport
I see others hugging in the line at check-in
The board, your flight, the letters change
People rushing who, like you, will all be gone soon
I stay alone and try to smile
Chorus 1
I pull you into my arms again and let it happen
No matter where you go or what you do
You stay
You stay
Chorus 1
Hug me once more and do it like that
No matter where you go, I'll let it happen
And stay
And stay
I try to bridge the distance by writing to you
Phone, SMS, Facebook, e-mail and Skype, whatever
Long-distance love is eternal frustration
You go even crazier the less you hear from the other
It's tricky, because I don't know where you are
I lost you to someone, don't even know if he exists
You're out there, a beautiful woman in another country
I push the thoughts away, the picture: you and another man
Maybe I'm just overdoing it, it wasn't that long ago
That I accuse you of riding two tracks right now
I distract myself and rearrange my room
And trip over a thousand memories
I pull you into my arms again and let it happen
No matter where you go or what you do
You stay
You stay
Hug me once more and do it like that
No matter where you go, I'll let it happen
And stay
And stay
Where we were in agreement
Others start to argue
Between one of our lines there's more
Than you could write in a book
I can't really explain it
But I know if it were gone
I'd sit down and write a song
This time 'forgetting is so hard'
I pull you into my arms again and let it happen
No matter where you go or what you do
You stay

SONG MEANING

“Du Bleibst” (You Stay) captures that bittersweet moment when love and farewell share the same embrace.

In this heartfelt track, Clueso revisits a relationship that once felt like “peace on earth.” His partner is chasing new horizons, suitcases in hand, while he stays behind counting memories and departure boards. The chorus mantra “Du bleibst” is both a promise and a plea: even if planes take her far away, she will stay in his heart. We follow him through late-night messages, Skype calls, and jealous daydreams as he wrestles with long-distance doubts. Yet beneath the worry lies gratitude for the “serie wunderbarer Jahre” they shared and a quiet strength to let her live her dream. The result is a tender reminder that real love can outlast goodbye—anchored by music, memories, and the simple act of writing a song when “vergessen ist so schwer.”
