Nimmerland [English translation]

Way back in time, way back in time, way back in time

Way back in time, way back in time, way back in time

Wooh, wooh, wooh

I could never ride a skateboard like you could

I liked tinkling away on the piano better

And my board from Karstadt1always stood by the door

You slapped bandaids over your blood

I pounded the keys when I had the blues

I never visited you at your house

Today we're still the same fools

Only with more mail, with bills and sick days2

Come on, don't let yourself get so stressed out by life

I know you still haven't forgotten

Do you still remember my thing as a kid?

Yeah, I still do that even now

And even after such a long time

I always feel like doing it

I'm in Neverland

Come on, don't be Captain Hook

Never grow, never grow up

Do you still remember my thing as a kid?

Yeah, I still do that even now

And even after such a long time

I always feel like doing it

I'm in Neverland

Come on, don't be Captain Hook

Never grow, never grow up

Way back in—, way back in—, way back in—

Your habit is never to stay in one place, you always wanted to get out into the world

Sleeping in car in London, you didn't need any money

Road trip, Côte d'Azur, Saint-Tropez, cans of beer

And me rehearsing something here, hey

And not a whole lot has really changed

If I miss my sister, I have to travel to some foreign country

And you still listen to the demo tapes

Even if you were never the biggest fan

I never doubt

that I can fly

Because otherwise, from then on

I might just not be able to

I never doubt

that I can fly

Because otherwise, from then on

I might just not be able to

Do you still remember my thing as a kid?

Yeah, I still do that even now

And even after such a long time

I always feel like doing it

I'm in Neverland

Come on, don't be Captain Hook

Never grow, never grow up

Do you still remember my thing as a kid?

Yeah, I still do that even now

And even after such a long time

I always feel like doing it

I'm in Neverland

Come on, don't be Captain Hook

Never grow, never grow up

Wooh, wooh, wooh

I never doubt

that I can fly

Because otherwise, from then on

I might just not

Might just not be able to

Do you still remember my thing as a kid?

Yeah, I still do that even now

And even after such a long time

I always feel like doing it

I'm in Neverland

Come on, don't be Captain Hook

Never grow, never grow up

Do you still remember my thing as a kid?

Yeah, I still do that even now

And even after such a long time

I always feel like doing it

I'm in Neverland

Come on, don't be Captain Hook

Never grow, never grow up

Wooh, wooh

Never grow, never grow up

Wooh

Way back in time

Never grow, never grow up

Way back in time, way back in time, way back in time

Way back in time, way back in time, way back in time

Way back in time, way back in time, way back in time

Way back in time, way back in time, way back in time

Even now

I always want to

Despite all that, want to

Never grow, never grow up

Even now

I always want to

Despite all that, want to

Never grow, never grow up

Even now

I always want to

Despite all that, want to

Never grow, never grow up

Even now

I always want to

Despite all that, want to

Never grow, never grow up
