Translation of Wir früher mal dich from German to English
I think of all the songs
That I wrote for you
They are part of me, like you
I sing them full of love (one)
If that's what remained? Nothing more than verses and melodies, I
Believe, I would be satisfied, because then we are here forever (one)
And I don't know how you feel about it
Because we write and we don't talk
Because we both don't want that for now (one)
But I already know, someday I'll see you
Because that's how life is
Always moves forward and sorts itself out
Even if I wanted to, I couldn't anymore
Something was used up and empty
Now you're gone and I'm getting closer to myself
Whenever it's too quiet, I can't sleep
I lie awake
That's why I'm not alone again tonight
And believe me
If I stay awake, I don't think of you
But I dream of it
To love someone like I used to love you
Like I used to love you
Hard to believe
That we're really out now
Out of the dream with kids, house and wife (one)
And it was supposed to run
Until we're old and gray
Built everything ourselves, then tore everything down ourselves now
And I don't know how you feel about it
But it annoys me, because everyone is talking
How sad and how hard it is (one)
If I'm honest, I'm not ashamed
Went well forever and then not
And now it's okay the way it is
Even if I wanted to, I couldn't anymore
Something was used up and empty
Now you're gone and I'm getting closer to myself
Whenever it's too quiet, I can't sleep
I lie awake
That's why I'm not alone again tonight
And believe me
If I stay awake, I don't think of you
But I dream of it
To love someone like I used to love you, mh
Even if I wanted to, I just couldn't anymore
I couldn't anymore
So I let you go and keep you in my heart
But
Whenever it's too quiet, I can't sleep
I lie awake
That's why I'm not alone again tonight
And believe me
If I stay awake, I don't think of you
But I dream of it
To love someone like I used to love you
Like I used to love you
