Lyrics & translation
Verse
Sold the mint ones yesterday.
Gestern die Makellosen verkauft.
Stacks of vinyl, moved away.
Die Vinylstapel sind fortgezogen.
Perfect sleeves and shiny gloss.
Perfekte Hüllen, glänzender Schein.
Counting every single loss.
Jeden einzelnen Verlust zählen.
Chorus
But I kept the scratch.
Aber ich behielt den Kratzer.
Dusty groove, perfect match.
Staubige Rille, passt genau.
It skips where we laughed.
Es springt, wo wir lachten.
Pure joy, handcrafted.
Pure Freude, handgemacht.
I kept the scratch.
Ich behielt den Kratzer.
I kept the scratch.
Ich behielt den Kratzer.
Verse
The pristine sound feels cold.
Der makellose Klang fühlt sich kalt an.
Stories bought and stories sold.
Geschichten gekauft und Geschichten verkauft.
Silent edges, quiet rooms.
Stille Kanten, leise Räume.
Empty space where love blooms.
Leerer Raum, wo Liebe blüht.
Needle hits the jagged line.
Nadel trifft die gezackte Linie.
This old memory is still mine.
Diese alte Erinnerung gehört noch mir.
Chorus
But I kept the scratch.
Aber ich behielt den Kratzer.
Dusty groove, perfect match.
Staubige Rille, passt genau.
It skips where we laughed.
Es springt, wo wir lachten.
Pure joy, handcrafted.
Pure Freude, handgemacht.
I kept the scratch.
Ich behielt den Kratzer.
I kept the scratch.
Ich behielt den Kratzer.
Bridge
Click and pop, the sound.
Klicken und Ploppen, der Klang.
Treasures that we both found.
Schätze, die wir beide fanden.
Hissing like a summer rain.
Zischend wie ein Sommerregen.
Healing every bit of pain.
Heilt jedes Stück vom Schmerz.
Chorus
But I kept the scratch.
Aber ich behielt den Kratzer.
Dusty groove, perfect match.
Staubige Rille, passt genau.
Pure joy, handcrafted.
Pure Freude, handgemacht.
I kept the scratch.
Ich behielt den Kratzer.
I kept the scratch.
Ich behielt den Kratzer.
Outro
Dancing through the stains.
Tanzen durch die Flecken.
Never gonna let go.
Werde niemals loslassen.
