Als sie noch Anna hieß deutsche Übersetzung
von Andy Borg

When she was still called Anna
I stood, as if spellbound, in front of the dream poster:
For the first time she is singing in this city,
Karina.
There are hardly any tickets for her concert,
Just to see her again is worth everything to me,
Karina.
She is standing there in front of me in the spotlight,
I imagine
That she is singing today only for me.
I look a long time for her glance
And think years back. When she was still called Anna,
She stood at the garden fence,
I promised,
to build a golden castle for her.
I was the prince, who let her dream,
When she was still called Anna.
I was in love with her
And often told her:
"I will buy the Eiffel Tower with my pocket money."
She said that she would never forget me,
When she was still called Anna,
When she was still called Anna.


I want to see you today just as I saw you,
With freckles and short hair,
Karina.
The small silver bracelet on your wrist,
That was for you my dream present then,
Karina.
She gives autographs, she does not recognise me,
But somehow there was astonishment in her face,
As I said to her:

"Write Anna still for me!"
When she was still called Anna,
She stood at the garden fence,
I promised,
to build a golden castle for her.
I was the prince, who let her dream,
When she was still called Anna.
I was in love with her
And often told her:
"I will buy the Eiffel Tower with my pocket money."
She said that she would never forget me,
When she was still called Anna,
When she was still called Anna.

When she was still called Anna
When she was still called Anna
When she was still called Anna
