Do you recall: we two in your parents' garden
We've chatted and cuddled all night
And between tipping, candles and cheap red wine
We've made us the wildest promises
We've planned to hitch-hike to Sicily sometime
And get stranded somewhere, in nowhere together
And there we would have a house right on the water
Mit a whole bunch of kids on hand
Sometimes this kind of thoughts come to my mind:
that everything could have happened just like this,
what a big thing: you and me
Maybe in the next life
Maybe in the next life
If it happens that we meet again
I won't let you go afresh
Ehi, what I would give for that!
Maybe in the next life
I was in our town once again recently;
a couple of old friends have told me how you are doing.
You're blonde again and you own a flat in the southtown.
You've studied and you've come quite a long way.
Ehi, what would've become of us two,
if our ways hadn't split up
If we brought along the biggest dreams
Like in a Hollywood movie with a happy ending?
Sometimes this kind of thoughts come to my mind:
that all could've turned out in a completely different way,
what a big thing: you and me
Maybe in the next life
Maybe in the next life
If it happens that we meet again
I won't let you go afresh
Ehi, what I would give for that!
Maybe in the next life
And I ask myself, what woul'd ve happened
If I standed in front of your door tonight.
What would you say,
if I had a ticket with me,
to Sicily, for us two:
What would you say?
Maybe in the next life.
Yes, maybe in the next life.
Maybe in the next life
Maybe in the next life
If it happens that we meet again
I won't let you go afresh
Ehi, what I would give for that!
Maybe in the next life
