Love is Selfish
Jack White
One, two, three, four
Love is such a selfish thing
It's always crying, "Me, me, me"
And it's always trying to mess up all my plans
And I work real hard to make you understand
And I'll try my best to help you understand
I've been trying over the years
To try and overcome these fears
But nothing I come up with proves I can
And I work real hard to make you understand
Yeah, I'll try my best to help you understand
I'm on a train, but I can not rest upon it
I'm on a train, but it won't stay on the rails
And I got a sailboat with her name painted on it
But I don't know how to sail
Someone smarter than me and you might
End up solving a clue or two
But could they make it happen with their hands?
Can they build it up from nothing with their hands?
I could lose my mind just trying to understand
Love is such a selfish thing
It's always crying, "Me, me, me"
And it's always trying to mess up all my plans
And I work real hard to make you understand
And I'll try my best to help you understand
One, two, three, four
Eins, zwei, drei, vier
Love is such a selfish thing
Liebe ist so eine egoistische Sache
It's always crying, "Me, me, me"
Sie schreit immer „Ich, ich, ich“
And it's always trying to mess up all my plans
Und sie versucht immer, all meine Pläne durcheinander zu bringen
And I work real hard to make you understand
Und ich arbeite wirklich hart, um dir das zu erklären
And I'll try my best to help you understand
Und ich werde mein Bestes tun, um dir zu helfen, es zu verstehen
I've been trying over the years
Ich habe über die Jahre hinweg versucht
To try and overcome these fears
Diese Ängste zu überwinden
But nothing I come up with proves I can
Aber nichts, was ich mir ausdenke, beweist, dass ich es kann
And I work real hard to make you understand
Und ich arbeite wirklich hart, um dir das zu erklären
Yeah, I'll try my best to help you understand
Ja, ich werde mein Bestes tun, um dir zu helfen, es zu verstehen
I'm on a train, but I can not rest upon it
Ich bin in einem Zug, aber ich kann mich nicht darauf ausruhen
I'm on a train, but it won't stay on the rails
Ich bin in einem Zug, aber er bleibt nicht auf den Schienen
And I got a sailboat with her name painted on it
Und ich habe ein Segelboot mit ihrem Namen darauf bemalt
But I don't know how to sail
Aber ich weiß nicht, wie man segelt
Someone smarter than me and you might
Jemand, der klüger ist als du und ich, könnte
End up solving a clue or two
Am Ende ein oder zwei Hinweise lösen
But could they make it happen with their hands?
Aber könnten sie es mit ihren Händen geschehen lassen?
Can they build it up from nothing with their hands?
Können sie es aus dem Nichts mit ihren Händen aufbauen?
I could lose my mind just trying to understand
Ich könnte meinen Verstand verlieren, nur um zu versuchen, es zu verstehen
Love is such a selfish thing
Liebe ist so eine egoistische Sache

And I work real hard to make you understand
Und ich arbeite wirklich hart, um dir das zu erklären
And I'll try my best to help you understand
Und ich werde mein Bestes tun, um dir zu helfen, es zu verstehen
