I stand here by the tracks
Look you in the eyes
Your gaze says more than any word, word, word
A firm hug
And a few quiet tears
Then I turn around again and am gone, gone, gone
I carry them with me
Our pictures
Your brightest smile on a Polaroid
We travel together
Even if miles separate us
You follow me in thoughts to every place, place, place
No matter where you are
How much you miss me
How much time separates us
And how fast it runs
It's not that hard
I'm just a heartbeat away
And you are all that remains
Even if every rope breaks
Our path also divides
I just want you to know
I'm never more
Than just a heartbeat away
So many unfamiliar faces
And thousands of lights
But every moment I'm with you, you, you
On some days
All these colors fade
Then I imagine you were with me, me, me
I carry them with me
Our pictures
Your brightest smile on a Polaroid
We stay together
Even if miles separate us
And our world passes me by
No matter where you are
How much you miss me
How much time separates us
And how fast it runs
It's not that hard
I'm just a heartbeat away
And you are all that remains
Even if every rope breaks
Our path also divides
I just want you to know
I'm never more
Than just a heartbeat away
And if you ever lose yourself
In yourself, I'm here
For you, for you
Even if years pass
And if your world breaks
I am, I am
Just a heartbeat away
I'm just a heartbeat away
Just a heartbeat away
I'm just a heartbeat away
And no matter where you are
How much you miss me
How much time separates us
And how fast it runs
It's not that hard
I'm just a heartbeat away
And you are all that remains
Even if every rope breaks
Our path also divides
I just want you to know
I'm never more
Than just a heartbeat away

SONG MEANING

Picture the bittersweet moment on a train platform: suitcases rattling, cold rails humming, and two people clinging to each other for one last, tight hug. That is where Wincent Weiss begins “Nur Ein Herzschlag Entfernt,” a song that turns the pain of saying goodbye into a promise of unbreakable closeness. While miles, clocks, and crowds might separate the couple, the singer insists that emotional distance never stretches beyond a single heartbeat. Polaroid snapshots, imagined reunions, and the steady rhythm of a heart all serve as gentle reminders that love travels faster than any train.

Beyond its tender farewell scene, the track is a warm reassurance to anyone facing a long-distance relationship—or any kind of separation. No matter how many “straps snap” or how different life paths become, the chorus repeats a simple vow: I’m always just one heartbeat away. It is a lyrical safety net for lonely days, encouraging the listener to reach inward and feel that comforting thump that means their person is right there with them. Weiss wraps nostalgia, hope, and steadfast devotion into an upbeat pop package, making this song both a tearjerker and an energy boost for anyone missing someone special.
