Paroles et traduction Höhner - Himmelhoch High (Live & akustisch)

Himmelhoch High (Live & akustisch)

Himmelhoch High, in et Levve verknallt
Un manchmol zu Tode betrübt.
Himmelhoch High, hätt hä immer jeglöuv,
Dat dr Himmel ihm alles verjitt.

Venloer Stroß, do hinge dat Huus,
Do hätt hä vör Johre jewunnt.
Hätt immer im Levve alles riskiert
Un et Levve hätt ihn nit jeschont.
Dä Hein wor ne Spinner un och e Genie,
Un immer in Allem zu schnell.
Mädche un Städte, Ideen wie nie,
Sing Welt wor wie e Karrussel:

Ref.:
Himmelhoch High, in et Levve verknallt
Un manchmol zu Tode betrübt.
Himmelhoch High, hätt hä immer jeglöuv,
Dat dr Himmel ihm alles verjitt.

Hä wor talentiert, hätt Theater jespellt,
Ne Zeidungsberich dä verblass.
In Brooklyn jelääv, an dr Börse jedealt
Un plötzlich in Bangkok im Knast.
Kei' Hüsjer jebaut, kei' Bäumche jepflanz,
Sing Fraue, die hatten et schwer.
Un dann widder fott, mit de Stääne jedanz,
Irjend nem Draum hingerher.

Ref.:
Himmelhoch High, in et Levve verknallt...

Hä hätt alles riskiert, op Jrenze jelääv,
Un off met demm Levve jespillt.
Opstieg un Avsturz un Widderjeburt,
Hä hätt noh de Stääne jezielt.

Ref.:
Himmelhoch High, in et Levve verknallt...

Ne Stään trick sing eijene Bahn,
Bis hä verjlöht irjendwann.
Wigg wor dä Wääch, doch dann kom hä
Bei sich selver aan.

High as the Sky (Live & Acoustic)

I am so high and in love with life,
Yet, you know sometimes I am terribly sad.
I'm as high as the sky, I always believed it
That heaven will forgive me everything.

Venloer Street, that's where the house is
Where I lived years ago.
I always risked everything in life
And life didn't spare me at all.
Hein was a crackpot and also a genius,
And always too fast in everything.
Girls and cities, ideas like never before,
My world was like a carousel:

Chorus:
I am as high as the sky, so in love with life
Yet, you know sometimes I am terribly sad.
I'm as high as the sky, I always believed it
That heaven will forgive me everything.

I was talented, I acted in the theater,
A newspaper article that fades away.
I lived in Brooklyn, traded on the stock exchange
And suddenly in prison in Bangkok.
I built no houses, planted no trees,
My wives, they had it hard.
And then away again, dancing with the stars,
Chasing some dream somewhere.

Chorus:
I am so high and in love with life...

I risked everything, lived on the edge
And played with life openly.
Ascent and سقوط and Rebirth,
I aimed for the stars.

Chorus:
I am so high and in love with life...

A star takes its own path,
Until it burns out someday.
The path was bumpy, but then I came
To myself.
