Wie wir waren English translation
von Unheilig feat. Andreas Bourani

I walk the streets
see the lights of my city
All the places of our childhood
that I have never forgotten

I know every corner, every wall
recognize a face
Even if time changes everything
I love coming back home

We wanted to be like heroes and kings
Nothing was impossible
We were infinitely free


The way we were (The way we were)
That's how I want to be (free like us)
The way we were (The way we were)
That's how I want to be
Our wishes are still the same
(Just like us) just like we were
(Free like us) that's how I want to be
(Just like us) just like we were
Our dreams are still the same

We were like brothers
Playful and conspiring
Celebrated victories
And also lost together

We wanted to be like heroes and kings
Nothing was impossible
We were infinitely free

The way we were (The way we were)
That's how I want to be (free like us)
The way we were (The way we were)
That's how I want to be
Our wishes are still the same
(Just like us) just like we were
(Free like us) that's how I want to be
(Just like us) just like we were
Our dreams are still the same


The way we were (The way we were)
That's how I want to be (free like us)
The way we were (The way we were)
That's how I want to be
Our wishes are still the same
(Just like us) just like we were
(Free like us) that's how I want to be
(Just like us) just like we were
Our dreams are still the same
