Hele Vejen [English translation]

When it hits you

Whe-when life hits you, hits you hard

Then are you with me?

I have a vault full of nothing but good memories

I live life like a recess where the school bell never rings

Sweet women get red-cheeked when we hit the stages of this country

No problem, we do it again and again and

But I must admit it feels like time has wings

Boys turn into men and new lives they begin

And people around you go in totally different directions

Some stay right here – others disappear

But we were, together we will remain

Until we're old and grey, even when it gets tough, yeah

They say a true friend is like a second you

And they will walk all the way down the pathways of life

Once we were just kids

With nothing to loose

But suddenly we were grown-ups

And now we're here, so tell me

When it hits you, whe-when life hits you

Hits you hard, then are you with me or are you a stranger to me?

When we're stranded, whe-when we're stranded

Stranded in a deserted place will it be you reviving me?

If you once called me brother

Then show me you still believe in me

When it hits you, whe-when life hits you

Hits you hard, then are you with me all the way?

Even Copenhagen1 Town, she's not the same anymore

She's changing, I'm changing, a little hard to navigate

Once upon a time it was just the boys at the clubs

Before we counted the money, yeah, before we counted the minutes

And the millions start to flow when the chicks show

Then things are going down in a white mans body

But I inhale, I exhale

I'm absolutely satisfied with the way I exist

The public are exalted because they're getting served

These prophesies – they're not just lyrics anymore

Never ever let any thing, any woman

Any money get between us, cause

Once we were just kids

With nothing to loose

But suddenly we were grown-ups

And now we're here, so tell me

When it hits you, whe-when life hits you

Hits you hard, then are you with me or are you a stranger to me?

When we're stranded, whe-when we're stranded

Stranded in a deserted place will it be you reviving me

If you once called me brother

Then show me you still believe in me

When it hits you, whe-when life hits you

Hits you hard, then are you with me all the way?

I am right here

I am right here, tell me

I am right here

Yes, it doesn't matter whats happening, yeah yeah

I am right here - people come, people go

I am right here - tell me who fades, who stands

I am right here, people come, people go

I am right here, yeah yeah

Did you call me your friend?

There are thing we must never forget

Did you call me your boy?

We'll find our way again

Did you call me your brother once

Then show me you still believe in me

When it hits you, whe-when life hits you

Hits you hard, then are you with me all the way?

When it hits you, whe-when life hits you

Hits you hard, then are you with me or are you a stranger to me?

When we're stranded, whe-when we're stranded

Stranded in a deserted place will it be you reviving me

If you once called me brother

Then show me you still believe in me

When it hits you, whe-when life hits you

Hits you hard, then are you with me all the way?
