Lyrics
(Verse 1)
We wear our black and yellow with pride,
Dreaming of the glory we’ve been denied,
Every season, we rise with hope anew,
But the title slips away, just out of view.
(Pre-Chorus)
We’ve fought so hard, through every game,
The spirit of Dortmund, still burns the same,
Yet at the last hurdle, we stumble and fall,
The dreams of champions, seem so small.
(Chorus)
Oh, Dortmund, we try, we try,
But in the end, we say goodbye,
To the dreams of lifting the crown,
In this city, we wear our frown.
We rise, we fall, we stand tall,
But the glory never calls,
Dortmund hearts, they break again,
In the shadow of champions, we remain.
(Verse 2)
The echoes of the Westfalenstadion roar,
Through the highs and lows, we've seen it all before,
In every pass, every goal we score,
We believe this time, we’ll open that door.
(Pre-Chorus)
With every match, our hopes ignite,
We fight with passion, we fight with might,
But when the final whistle blows,
It’s heartbreak, once again, we know.
(Chorus)
Oh, Dortmund, we try, we try,
But in the end, we say goodbye,
To the dreams of lifting the crown,
In this city, we wear our frown.
We rise, we fall, we stand tall,
But the glory never calls,
Dortmund hearts, they break again,
In the shadow of champions, we remain.
(Bridge)
Yet through the tears, and the sorrow’s song,
We stand united, our bond is strong,
For one day soon, we’ll find our way,
And the title will be ours to display.
(Chorus)
Oh, Dortmund, we try, we try,
But in the end, we say goodbye,
To the dreams of lifting the crown,
In this city, we wear our frown.
We rise, we fall, we stand tall,
But the glory never calls,
Dortmund hearts, they break again,
In the shadow of champions, we remain.
(Outro)
So here’s to Dortmund, our love, our team,
Keep the faith, hold on to the dream,
For someday soon, we’ll break the chain,
And sing our song, as champions again.
