Apollo

Like a bullet in my chest
You're written, bound and etched
Forever in my mind

We are fading in our hands
Lost somewhere in a wasteland
Not knowing up from down

But when the walls are caving
And the world keeps turning
We got the love, we got to love

Now I will never let you go
All the words won't make me fold
It is never easy
I'll follow you, Apollo

Now I will never let you go
Give it time and we will grow
Ain't no fun in easy
I'll follow you, Apollo
I'll follow you, Apollo

I wear my heart on my sleeve
You do the same for me
When autumn comes around

But when the walls are caving
And the world keeps turning
We got the love, we got to love

Now I will never let you go
All the words won't make me fold
It is never easy
I'll follow you, Apollo

Now I will never let you go
Give it time and we will grow
Ain't no fun in easy
I'll follow you, Apollo
I'll follow you-u

So don't pull the rug from underneath us
We're in trouble babe, but we got the love
Don't pull the rug from underneath us
Crashing down fast, as fragile as glass

But what are we now if we never tried?
What are we now?

I will never let you go
Give it time and we will grow
It is not supposed to be easy

Now I will never let you go
Give it time and we will grow
Ain't no fun in easy
I'll follow you, Apollo
I'll follow you, Apollo

You, Apollo
It is never easy
I'll follow you, Apollo
I'll follow you, Apollo

You, Apollo
It is never eаѕy
I'll follow you, Apollo
I'll follow you, Apollo

Apollo

Kao metak u mojim grudima
Zapisan si, vezan i ugraviran
Zauvijek u mom umu

Blijedimo u našim rukama
Izgubljeni negdje u pustoši
Ne razlikujući gore od dolje

Ali kada se zidovi ruše
I svijet se nastavlja okretati
Imamo ljubav, moramo voljeti

Sada te nikada neću pustiti
Sve riječi me neće natjerati da se slomim
Nikad nije lako
Pratit ću te, Apollo

Sada te nikada neću pustiti
Daj mi vremena i mi ćemo rasti
Nema zabave u lakoći
Pratit ću te, Apollo
Pratit ću te, Apollo

Nosim srce na rukavu
Ti radiš isto za mene
Kada dođe jesen

Ali kada se zidovi ruše
I svijet se nastavlja okretati
Imamo ljubav, moramo voljeti

Sada te nikada neću pustiti
Sve riječi me neće natjerati da se slomim
Nikad nije lako
Pratit ću te, Apollo

Sada te nikada neću pustiti
Daj mi vremena i mi ćemo rasti
Nema zabave u lakoći
Pratit ću te, Apollo
Pratit ću te

Zato nemoj vući tepih ispod nas
U nevolji smo, dušo, ali imamo ljubav
Nemoj vući tepih ispod nas
Brzo se rušimo, krhki kao staklo

Ali šta smo sada ako nikada nismo pokušali?
Šta smo sada?

Nikada te neću pustiti
Daj mi vremena i mi ćemo rasti
Ne bi trebalo biti lako

Sada te nikada neću pustiti
Daj mi vremena i mi ćemo raѕti
Nema zabave u lakoći
Pratit ću te, Apollo
Pratit ću te, Apollo

Tebe, Apollo
Nikad nije lako
Pratit ću te, Apollo
Pratit ću te, Apollo

Tebe, Apollo
Nikad nije lako
Pratit ću te, Apollo
Prаtit ću te, Apollo

Apollo

Kuin luoti rinnassani
Olet kirjoitettu, sidottu ja kaiverrettu
Ikuisesti mielessäni

Me haalistumme käsissämme
Kadonnut jonnekin autiomaahan
Tietäen ei ylhäältä alas

Mutta kun seinät sortuvat
Ja maailma jatkaa pyörimistä
Meillä on rakkautta, meidän täytyy rakastaa

Nyt en koskaan päästä sua menemään
Kaikki sanat eivät saa mua luovuttamaan
Se ei ole koskaan helppoa
Seuraan sua, Apollo

Nyt en koskaan päästä sua menemään
Anna sille aikaa, niin kasvamme
Helpossa ei ole hauskaa
Seuraan sua, Apollo
Seuraan sua, Apollo

Pidän tunteeni avoimesti esillä
Teet saman mulle
Kun syksy koittaa

Mutta kun seinät sortuvat
Ja maailma jatkaa pyörimistä
Meillä on rakkautta, meidän täytyy rakastaa

Nyt en koskaan päästä sua menemään
Kaikki sanat eivät saa mua luovuttamaan
Se ei ole koskaan helppoa
Seuraan sua, Apollo

Nyt en koskaan päästä sua menemään
Anna sille aikaa, niin kasvamme
Helpossa ei ole hauskaa
Seuraan sua, Apollo
Seuraan sua-a

Joten älä vedä mattoa altamme
Olemme pulassa, mutta meillä on rakkautta
Älä vedä mattoa altamme
Romahtaen nopeasti, hauras kuin lasi

Mutta mitä me nyt olemme, jos emme koskaan yrittäneet?
Mitä me nyt olemme?

En koskaan päästä sua menemään
Anna sille aikaa, niin kasvamme
Sen ei kuulu olla helppoa

Nyt en koskaan päästä sua menemään
Anna sille aikaa, niin kasvamme
Helpossa ei ole hauskaa
Seuraan sua, Apollo
Seuraan sua, Apollo

Sä, Apollo
Se ei ole koskaan helppoa
Seuraan sinua, Apollo
Seuraan sua, Apollo

Sä, Apollo
Se ei ole koskaan helppoa
Seuraan sinua, Apollo
Seuraan ѕuа, Apollo
