Freunde [English translation]

[Intro]

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Ey!

[Part1]

Brother, haven't seen you for far too long, you're doing great

To the good friends1, who else disappoints you really bitterly?

I am sorry that I don't know what's up with you

What I did? Survived until today

Man, and how should I've know the sun's forgetting you, boy?

Because a pitch black shadow even lurks on my path

But you have problems yourself (problems)

And I have problems myself (problems)

But they are not the same problems (problems)

And it would be just naive to think that we understand that

The time cuts the bond of two brothers apart like a hot blade

And only every few years we'll appear again

[Hook]

To the good friends1

But we haven't seen each other for far too long

Suddenly we're gone, you're here, I'm there

One's in the dirt and the other one in the charts

One's doing business and the next one is in prison

And somehow we've got nothing left to talk about

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

[Part 2]

She had eyes like the sky but never loved for real

Didn't believe in God but believed in your cash

And my brother swears to himself, he'll never snort this crap again

Four o'clock at night and you see him again - Walking Dead

How much, how much, how much do I wish for this perfect world?

But unfortunately, we're all not perfect

Because my dreams are trapped in my head

And your dreams are trapped in this block

And good friendship is unfortunately just a word

And as soon as we promise something, the wind blows it away again

Cause first you love, then you drift2, then you hate each other apart

And then the game starts all over again

[Hook]

To the good friends1

But we haven't seen each other for far too long

Suddenly we're gone, you're here, I'm there

One's in the dirt and the other one's in the charts

One's doing business and the next one's in prison

And somehow we've got nothing left to talk about

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

[Bridge]

Good friends, been brothers since the sandbox

Good friends, yeah man, that was in the old days

Good friends, even time never separates them

But only time separates good friends again

[Hook]

To the good friends1

But we haven't seen each other for far too long

Suddenly we're gone, you're here, I'm there

One's in the dirt and the other one in the charts

One's doing business and the next one is in prison

And somehow we've got nothing left to talk about

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains

Only "Hello, how are you?" remains
