You drove to Paris in a Beetle
I drove to Lake Balaton in a Trabant
We believed that beyond the horizon, it always continues
We smoked Karo and F6,
You the scent of the big wide world
You were probably never really rich
But also never broke
Life began

Because we were young and full of life
Our thoughts free
Even if the other world was foreign to us
And walls separated us,
In our hearts, we were always one
Yes, we were young and full of life
And our dreams the same
On the rooftops of Berlin
We saw the sun move westward
And the sky undivided

We had Sparwasser and Jähn
You had the Kaiser and Lindenberg
And yet, I already heard back then
Your "Youth Love"
We lived confidently and freely
And dreamed past the dream
In Helmstedt, the world ended
But beyond the horizon
It continued for us

Because we were young and full of life
Our thoughts free
Even if the other world was foreign to us
And walls separated us
In our hearts, we were always one, whoa oh
Yes, we were young and full of life
And our dreams the same
On the rooftops of Berlin
We saw the sun move westward
And the sky undivided
Yes, we were young and full of life
And our dreams the same
On the rooftops of Berlin
We saw the sun move westward
And we felt boundless

Because we were young and full of life
Our thoughts free
Even if the other world was foreign to us
And walls separated us
In our hearts, we were always one
Yes, we were young and full of life
And our dreams the same
On the rooftops of Berlin
We saw the sun move westward
And the sky undivided

Huh uh uh
