Original Lyrics
Translation in German
verse
I keep thinking back to the days when we were young
Ich denke zurück an die tage als wir noch jung waren
We used to play all day until the sun went down
Wir spilten jeden tag bis die sonne unterging
Ride a bike, fly a kite, take a walk or run
Fare ein velo, flige einen drachen, ge spazieren odder renn
Not a care inna di world, man, life was fun
Sich nicht um die weltkümmern, man, das leben war spass
verse
And Mama would a bring us to the sandy sea shores
And Mama would a bring us to the sandy sea shores
And Daddy would a come to see me ride my surf board
Und papa kommt schauen wie ich auf meinem surfboard fahre
And Grandma loved us all but she loved me more
Und grosmutter liebt uns alle abber sie liebt mich mehr
At least that's what she told me when I was four
At least that's what she told me when I was four
verse
Speed it up six years to the age of ten
Speed it up six years to the age of ten
Goin' to school just to cruise with my classmates then
Ging nur zur schule um mit meinen klassenkamaraden zu sein
We used to laugh after class in the hallways then
Nach der stunden lachten wir im schulhausgang
Sure all alone with the crew of my closest friends
Sure all alone with the crew of my closest friends
verse
And dinner was ready at 5:30 sharp
And dinner was ready at 5:30 sharp
The whole family was there to pray before we start
Die ganze familie war da zum beten bevor wir anfangen
Thinking of those times, how our days is hard
Denke an die zeiten, wie schwer unsere tage waren
Though it's close to my heart, Lord, it seems so far
Though it's close to my heart, Lord, it seems so far
chorus
So, let's turn back time
Also dreh die zeit zurück
When it was simple and kind
Als es noch simpel und einfach war
Said we never knew wrong, yeah, we never known better
Said we never knew wrong, yeah, we never known better
But right now I'm wanting to feel like a kid again
Genau jezt möchte ich mich wieder wie ein kind fühlen
chorus
Feel like a kid again, feel like a kid again
Füle mich wider wie ein kind, fühle mich wider wie ein kind
Feel like a kid again, feel like a kid again
Füle mich wider wie ein kind, fühle mich wider wie ein kind
Feel like a kid again, feel like a kid again
Füle mich wider wie ein kind, fühle mich wider wie ein kind
Right now I'm wanting to feel like a kid again
Genau jezt möchte ich mich wieder wie ein kind fühlen
verse
Let me take you to a time when we were 20 years old
Let me take you to a time when we were 20 years old
All my friends shared secrets that a still ain't told
All my friends shared secrets that a still ain't told
And all I coulda dreamed of was a girl to hold
And all I coulda dreamed of was a girl to hold
But beloved like a dove saw her arms unfold
But beloved like a dove saw her arms unfold
verse
Took a hit from a spliff when I was just a teen
Took a hit from a spliff when I was just a teen
While listenin' to the music of Bob Marley

Yes, everything nice, everything irie
Yes, everything nice, everything irie
Because this is growing up in a Hawaiian style
Because this is growing up in a Hawaiian style
verse
Walking through, never knew how to do high school
Walking through, never knew how to do high school
But I always studied hard never played the fool
But I always studied hard never played the fool
Except the times that we cut class and I ditched school too
Except the times that we cut class and I ditched school too
Meet at my girlfriends house or catch Bus Number 2
Meet at my girlfriends house or catch Bus Number 2
verse
I remember how fun it was to turn 18
I remember how fun it was to turn 18
And the feeling of chasing after all my dreams
And the feeling of chasing after all my dreams
Never known which path would be best for me
Never known which path would be best for me
I prayed the mystics that I made don't follow me
I prayed the mystics that I made don't follow me
chorus

An uncle too soon when two as been

And whatever happened to the dog I found

I made so much friends, some come and go
I made so much friends, some come and go
Some twisted the script and became my foes

But there is one thing that we all know
But there is one thing that we all know
That you reap what you sow, that's how life goes
That you reap what you sow, that's how life goes
