Lyrics and translation Stephan Eicher - Charly

Charly

Charly, tue nacheschänke
U bring mer nochli Iis.
Wiu nümme a se dänke,
Süsch geits mer wider mies.

Ha Ouge zim vergässe,
Wir dr Himmu so blau.
U trotzdäm hani Schiss,
U trotzdäm hanni Schiss, dass i vergiss.

Charly, tue nacheschänke
Aber e chli rächt.
Ha öppis zum ertränke,
Süsch geits mer wider schlächt.

Ha Lache zum vergässe.
U es paar Träne ou.
U trotzdäm hani Schiss,
U trotzdäm hanni Schiss, dass i vergiss.

Charly, tue nacheschänke
Weiss nid wie′s witergeit.
I wiu se tief versänke
Ir Vergangeheit.

Ha Äbe zum Vergässe
U es paar Mörge ou.
U trotzdäm hani Schiss,
U trotzdäm hanni Schiss, dass i vergiss.

Charly

Charly, pour me another drink
And bring me some ice.
As if I can't already think
Otherwise I'll feel terrible again.

I have forgotten blue eyes
As blue as the sky.
And still I'm scared
And still I'm scared that I'll forget.

Charly, pour me another drink
But just a little bit.
I have something to drown
Otherwise I'll feel bad again.

I have laughter to forget.
And a few tears too.
And still I'm scared
And still I'm scared that I'll forget.

Charly, pour me another drink
I don't know how it will end.
I want to sink them deep
Into the past.

I have an evening to forget
And a few tomorrows too.
And still I'm scared
And still I'm scared that I'll forget.
