It’s Been a While (aus ”Sing meinen Song, Vol. 4)

[Verse 1]
Come on, wake up, it is time to escape
We could try, we could try, we could try
We can wake up in a world full of change
We could fly, we could fly, we could fly

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't you see what's going on in here
History returns, it's bringing fear
Feels like I'm faking every heartbeat
And it's driving me to tears

[Chorus]
It's been a while since I've closed my eyes
But I know that I'm alive from time to time
I even sometimes know what's going on inside
Of us
It's been a while put the fear beside
I even sometimes know what hurts deep inside
I hear my voice 'cause I've been calling you
For a change

[Verse 2]
Come on, wake up, it is time to take a look
What's going on, going on, going on
We can write our own storybook
Come along, come along, come along

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't you see what's going on in here
Thoughts will return, they're bringing fear
I know I'm faking every heartbeat
And it's driving me to tears

[Chorus]
It's been a while since I've closed my eyes
But I know that I'm alive from time to time
I even sometimes know what's going on inside
Of us
It's been a while put the fear beside
I even sometimes know what hurts deep inside
I hear my voice 'cause I've been calling you
For a change

[Bridge]
Oh, it hurts deep inside
It's been a while, it's been a while
Oh, it hurts so deep inside
Just for a while, just for a while

[Chorus]
It's been a while since I've closed my eyes
But I know that I'm alive from time to time
I even sometimes know what's going on inside
Of us
It's been a while put the fear beside
I even sometimes know what hurts deep inside
I hear my voice 'cause I've been calling you
For a change

[Outro]
When I close my eyes
I feel alive
When I close my eyes, I feel alive
When I close my eyes
Oh, I feel alive
When I close my eyes, I feel alive
Just for a while
