Wir waren hier II [English translation]

Today I'm just gonna leave all my cares be

And just listen to songs that let me fly

I check to see if the old sneakers still fit.

Everything that's happened, I'd do again, exactly the same

Because believe me every day was perfect

The bar, the first Beck's, the first time having sex with you

We snuck1 into bed after a party

Everything's cool, because once again Mom didn't check.

Huhh. Sometimes I wished this one day would last forever

So we'll stay up all night, out of fear of losing ourselves

But one day we'll be old

But will still remember

Because: We were here, we were here

Yeah! And at the police station typewriters are rattling.

But mom stays relaxed, because even the small get big

Now I'm here and ride around in a boat

Everything's cool, if the sky's gray, I'll paint it red

And it's summer somewhere, sometime

Please let's not talk anymore, just give me your hand

Yeah I know, it's over, it won't be like it was again

Please let us be again like were on this one day.

Huhh. Sometimes I wished this one day would last forever

So we'll stay up all night, out of fear of losing ourselves

But one day we'll be old

But will still remember

Because: We were here, we were here

Huhh. Sometimes I wished this one day would last forever

So we'll stay up all night, out of fear of losing ourselves

But one day we'll be old

But will still remember

Because: We were here, we were here

We were here

We were here

We were here

We were here

We were here

We were here

We were here

We were here
