Origineel
[Chorus]
When we were kids, when we were kids
We could live forever and die together
When we were young, when we were young
We could live forever and die together
[Verse 1]
One great, one great thing about growing old is
The light in your bliss, now you’re young
Now you’re young and you’re beautiful
You can fly
[Pre-Chorus]
What did you do to break out?
What did you do as a child?
We’re going way down low
[Chorus]
When we were kids, when we were kids
We could live forever, die together
When we were young, when we were young
We could live forever, die together
[Verse 2]
Hello, hello innocence, where did you go?
The child that I know is still here
He is still here now, set him free
Let him fly
[Pre-Chorus]
What did you do to break out?
What did you do as a child?
We’re going way down low
[Chorus]
When we were kids, when we were kids
We could live forever, die together
When we were young, when we were young
We could live forever, die together
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine down the line
‘Cause we’re bonded by blood
I’ve been worse, I’ve been worse than a curse
But it’s all over now
And in the end, in the end you’re my friend
We are blood, we are one
[Chorus]
When we were kids, when we were kids
We could live forever, die together
When we were young, when we were young
We could live forever, die together
When we were kids, when we were kids
We could live forever and die together
Vertaling
[refrein]
Toen we kinderen waren, toen we kinderen waren
We konden eeuwig leven en samen sterven
Toen we jong waren, toen we jong waren
konden we eeuwig leven en samen sterven
[Verse 1]
Eén groot, één groot ding over oud worden is
Het licht in je gelukzaligheid, nu ben je jong
Nu ben je jong en je bent mooi
You can fly
[Pre-Chorus]
Wat heb je gedaan om uit te breken?
Wat heb je als kind gedaan?
We’re going way down low
[refrein]
Toen we kinderen waren, toen we kinderen waren
We konden eeuwig leven, samen sterven
Toen we jong waren, toen we jong waren
We konden eeuwig leven, samen sterven
[Verse 2]
Hallo, hallo onschuld, waar ben je gebleven?
Het kind dat ik ken is nog steeds hier
Hij is nu nog hier, laat hem vrij
Laat hem vliegen
[Pre-Chorus]
Wat heb je gedaan om uit te breken?
Wat heb je als kind gedaan?
We’re going way down low
[refrein]
Toen we kinderen waren, toen we kinderen waren
We konden eeuwig leven, samen sterven
Toen we jong waren, toen we jong waren
We konden eeuwig leven, samen sterven
[Gitaarsolo]
[Bridge]
I’ll be fine, I’ll be fine down the line
‘Cause we’re bonded by blood
I’ve been worse, I’ve been worse than a curse
But it’s all over now
En op het einde, op het einde ben je mijn vriend
We zijn bloed, we zijn één
[refrein]
When we were kids, when we were kids
We could live forever, die together
Toen we jong waren, toen we jong waren
We could live forever, die together
When we were kids, when we were kids
konden we voor altijd leven en samen sterven
