Later als ik groter ben [English translation]

I'd figured it out, it hit me at once

The blow hadn't faded yet

But I knew who I would become

I let them go, the cold calculations

They judged me from the back

But I did not follow the signs

In the future when I'm all grown up, I'll be who I am (oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh)

In the future if I recognize myself, I'll know who I am (oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh)

It was in there but it would not come out

The waiting for the day

I knew that I could not force it

I touched, that of which I dreamed of

I did not know what I was seeing

Until I saw that I had to sing

In the future when I'm all grown up, I'll be who I am (oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh)

In the future if I recognize myself, I'll know who I am (oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh)

I am alone, how could it be different, I still know what I sought

It's the future now

And around me, everything is different

But I still recognise that boy

It's the future now (oh oh oh oh)

It's the future now (oh oh oh oh)

The future is now (oh oh oh oh)

It's the future now (oh oh oh oh)

The future is now (oh oh oh oh)

In the future when I'm all grown up, I'll be who I am (oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh)

In the future if I recognize myself, I'll know who I am (oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh)

In the future when I'm all grown up, I'll be who I am (oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh)

In the future if I recognize myself, I'll know who I am (oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh)
