Genius English Translations - Julia Engelmann Grapefruit English Translation Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Above you hangs melancholy on the wall
Like a very old garland with a sea of elephants and
Concrete balloons shaped like monsters hanging from it
Like other luxury perfumes, you carry a gloomy look
So gloomy, Lana Del Rey would probably be jealous of you
You say that it's your destiny
That from now on, you'll be sad forever
But sorry, I don't believe in that

[Chorus]
And you know, things turn true if you say them often enough
Them often enough—, today will be a beautiful...
And you know, things turn true if you say them often enough
Them often enough—, today will be a beautiful day
Come on, let's open the window, turn up the radio
Let in a fresh wind and let all the old doubts out
If you firmly believe in it, then you'll be happy
And today, we'll have grapefruit for breakfast

[Post-Chorus]
You see I understand you, for now this is just a thesis
But I believe I understand you, I used to feel the same as you
Maybe I just know too little about you
But your sad face, it reminds me of myself
You remind me of myself
[Verse 2]
Because you know, last year, somewhat in this timeframe
Like now, I fought with myself and with ghosts with blunt swords
I lay in bed everyday and asked myself questions
Like, for example: What is my plan in this world?
But all the contemplating, the dangerous battles
And duels against myself consumed much of my energy
Until I offered myself peace at night with white flags
Because when I win, I'll have lost in the end too
I always wanted to be like the others, but that just doesn't help anyone
And that's not even possible at all, because the others already exist
The day at which I realized this was the first new beginning for me
And today I can say that I'm my best friend

[Chorus]
And you know, things turn true if you say them often enough
Them often enough—, today will be a beautiful...
And you know, things turn true if you say them often enough
Them often enough—, today will be a beautiful day
Come on, let's open the window, turn up the radio
Let in a fresh wind and let all the old doubts out
If you firmly believe in it, then you'll be happy
And today, we'll have grapefruit for breakfast

[Verse 3]
And all the beautiful things in the world, this can't be a coincidence
Mother Earth has been so kind to us
Time goes too fast to succumb to the thought monsters
And what you think of yourself is only decided by you alone
And hugs and flowers and rain showers in summer
Look: swimming, breathing, reading, sleeping
Friends and snapshots
Loving, laughing, cooking, dancing
Christmas, how nice this is!
And then also realising that you're your own home
And then singing and us two in the kitchen
And then Coldplay and above all, grapefruit for breakfast
And one more thing: If you break a leg, you also go to the orthopedist
That's why you could maybe talk to a psychologist sometime?
That's why you're not crazy, well, not more than me
Take your "Summertime sadness" away and show me your face
And I want to tell you a lot, like, "You don't have to
Suffer through phases like right now, not even secretly
Don't listen to the doubts because you're not alone
Here, and everything keeps on going, keeps on going, just like us"
[Chorus]
And you know, things turn true if you say them often enough
Them often enough—, today will be a beautiful...
And you know, things turn true if you say them often enough
Them often enough—, today will be a beautiful day
Come on, let's open the window, turn up the radio
Let in a fresh wind and let all the old doubts out
If you firmly believe in it, then you'll be happy
And today, we'll have grapefruit for breakfast

[Outro]
And you know, things turn true if you say them often enough
Them often enough—, today will be a beautiful...
And you know, things turn true if you say them often enough
Them often enough—, today is a beautiful day
