Wie wir waren [English translation]

I’m walking through the streets,

I see the lights of my city,

all the places of our childhood,

which I’ve never forgotten

I know every corner, every wall,

recognize a face

Even if time changes everything

I really like to get back home

We wanted to be like heroes and like kings

Nothing was impossible,

we were infinitely free

Just the way we were (just like us)

I want to be (free like us)

Just the way we were (just like us)

I want to be

Our wishes are still the same

(Just like us) just the way we were

(Free like us) I want to be

(Just like us) just the way we were

Our dreams are still the same

We were like brothers,

playful and sworn

Celebrated victories

and lost together too

We wanted to be like heroes and like kings

Nothing was impossible,

we were infinitely free

Just the way we were (just like us)

I want to be (free like us)

Just the way we were (just like us)

I want to be

Our wishes are still the same

(Just like us) just the way we were

(Free like us) I want to be

(Just like us) just the way we were

Our dreams are still the same

Just the way we were (just like us)

I want to be (free like us)

Just the way we were (just like us)

I want to be

Our wishes are still the same

(Just like us) just the way we were

(Free like us) I want to be

(Just like us) just the way we were

Our dreams are still the same
