Paroles et traduction Wise Guys - Das wär's gewesen

Das wär's gewesen

Das wär′s gewesen.
Wir beide, du und ich.
Das wär's gewesen,
Aber was geworden isses nich′.
Ich hab irgendwo gelesen,
Dass man so was nie vergisst.
Ich würd gern wissen, wo du bist.
Das wär's gewesen.
Wir waren so nah dran!
Das wär's gewesen,
Doch wir kamen nie zu Hause an.
Ich hab ′nen alten Brief gelesen,
Und du schreibst, dass du mich liebst.
Und weißt du, was du sonst noch schriebst?
Vielleicht im nächsten Leben...
Im nächsten Leben,
Da wird das mit uns beiden noch was geben.
Lebenslang mit dir zu leben,
Ich ′n alter Sack und du 'n Besen -
Das wär′s gewesen!
Das wär's gewesen.
Ein wunderschönes Paar!
Das wär′s gewesen.
Kaum zu glauben, dass da nie was war.
Ich hab irgendwo gelesen,
Dass vielleicht noch was draus wird,
Wenn man stur dran glaubt und unbeirrt.
Das wär's gewesen.
Das war′s immer nur fast.
Das wär's gewesen.
Warum haben wir uns stets verpasst?
Wir ham uns irgendwann am Tresen
Mal geschwor'n, dass irgendwann...
Ich glaub da nicht mehr richtig dran.
Vielleicht im nächsten Leben...
...
Das wär′s gewesen.
Wir zwei, wir ham′s verpennt
Das wär's gewesen.
Schöne Story ohne Happy End.
Ich hab die Anzeige gelesen,
Und ich wünsche dir viel Glück.
Was nicht war, das kommt auch nicht zurück.

That would have been it

That would have been it.
The two of us, you and I.
That would have been it,
But nothing came of it.
I read somewhere,
That you never forget something like that.
I'd like to know where you are.
That would have been it.
We were so close!
That would have been it,
But we never made it home.
I read an old letter,
And you wrote that you loved me.
And do you know what else you wrote?
Maybe in the next life...
In the next life,
There will still be something between us.
To live with you for life,
Me an old man, and you a broom -
That would have been it!
That would have been it.
A beautiful couple!
That would have been it.
Hard to believe that there was never anything.
I read somewhere,
That maybe something will come of it,
If you stubbornly believe in it and don't give up.
That would have been it.
That was always almost just the case.
That would have been it.
Why did we always miss each other?
We swore to each other at the bar at some point,
That someday...
I don't really believe in it anymore.
Maybe in the next life...
...
That would have been it.
The two of us, we messed it up.
That would have been it.
A beautiful story with no happy ending.
I read the ad,
And I wish you the best of luck.
What was not, will not come back.
