Wir waren hier [English translation]

At the corner, there's a young guy

Who imagines to play on the grand stage.

The guitar out of tune, sometimes a flat note,

And if he's lucky, he'll get back a smile.

And nobody believed that the boy would make it,

"You better go working or studying!"

But he never listened to them, he just tried it,

And financed himself with covers of Oasis.

And time is running, time is running.

It's crazy what can happen in a couple of years.

Even if that has been all and no one cares anymore,

I was here, I was here.

Tattooed the verses of my songs there.

They stay here, right here.

And if the lights don't turn on and there's no stage anymore,

We were here, we were here.

If I play at the corner and I don't have anything left but the music,

We were here.

I sang my first own songs only in front of my relatives,

Couldn't wait how they reacted.

Twenty brief times turned into sold-out clubs.

No matter what is yet to come, we were here.

It's wicked what a couple of songs are able to change.

I've only been on the move for a while.

No matter where this journey will go, if I see you in the audience,

We were here, no one can take it away from us anymore.

And time is running, time is running.

It's crazy what can happen in a couple of years.

Even if that has been all and no one cares anymore,

I was here, I was here.

Tattooed the verses of my songs there.

They stay here, right here.

And if the lights don't turn on and there's no stage anymore,

We were here, we were here.

If I play at the corner and I don't have anything left but the music,

We were here.

We were here.

We were here.

And time is running, time is running.

No matter what is yet to come, we were here.

And time is running, time is running.

It's crazy what can happen in a couple of years.

Even if that has been all and no one cares anymore,

I was here, I was here.

Tattooed the verses of my songs there.

They stay here, right here.

And if the lights don't turn on and there's no stage anymore,

We were here, we were here.

If I play at the corner and I don't have anything left but the music…

We were here,

And we stay here.

And until the light turns on,

Nothing can happen to us.

We were here,

And we stay here.

And until the light turns on,

Nothing can happen to us.
