Bye Bye [alte und neue Version] [English translation]
Bye Bye [alte und neue Version] [English translation]
It's an unbelievably beautiful day,
Warm outside,
He's on the train home,
Looks out the window and lets,
His thoughts run free,
Sits back relaxed,
As he doesn't have to get off soon,
A few people get on, a few get off,
He changes the song,
And suddenly a girls standing there
He thinks "wow"
Says: "sure the seats free"
She laughs and he's thinking...
[Bridge: "Him" (the guy's thoughts)
Come on,
Speak to her,
She's the most gorgeous girl you've ever seen,
Surely she's single
Stop waiting around (sich anstellen literally means 'to queue' so I'm not 100% here)
If not now then when?
But all that you/I can hear is my heartbeat
Bamm!
[Hook: Er]
What should I say
Something's knocked me out (think ausknocken is straight from the English, could be wrong though!)
I'm such a loser, cause I just can't do it (sich trauen means to trust oneself but that doesn't sound good in English :))
My head's full of words but they don't come out
She gets up
And gets off (the train)
Bye bye, bye bye love of my life,
And well, we won't see each other again
Could be that people meet twice in life
But by the second time it's just too late
[Verse 2:"Sie"]
It's an unbelievably beautiful day
It's warm outside
She fancies a bit of shopping in town
She need some women's things (that only women need)
A bikini, new bag and a bit of looking around (Schauen is a more general form of "sehen" so I guess here it means window shopping)
So let's get on the train,
She takes the ticket
4.70 for the journey
It's pretty hard (don't know what he means here, sorry, maybe sarcasm, maybe referring to the price)
But then she sees this guy
Thinks he's cute/sweet
Sits near him (this sentence means 'sits extra with him' so it might mean she's next to him or opposite him on a table seat)
[Bridge: Her]
Please please please come on,
Talk to me
It doesn't matter what you say (literally what you would say but in English it wouldn't sound nice)
I'll take it! (Auf etwas anspringen - jump straight on something meaning she'll answer to whatever he says)
So come on
You're my guy
We belong together (together)
If not now then when?
I hear my heart
Bamm!
[Hook: "Sie"]
What should I say then
Something's knocked me out
Should I risk it/go for it, just in case can't do it himself? (Again, er traut sich nicht" he doesn't trust himself)
My heads full of words,
But they don't come out,
I stand up
And get off
Bye bye, bye bye love of my life,
And well, we won't see each other again
Could be that people meet twice in life
But by the second time it's just too late
[Verse 3]
Whether you're a superhero with the ladies
Or a mummy's boy ("am liebsten bei mutti bist" prefer to be with mum)
Doesn't matter if you're a supermodel (superscharf - super sharp. Doesn't make sense in English)
Or the fatty who prefers to be with his cake/tort
Every day we all see someone we'd like to be with
These last lines are too colloquial so I'll translate them literally and see if you can work it out, sorry!
Had life planned for a long time,
But just that tiny question about their name or some of your crap (gebracht hat - brought. Don't know how that fits in)
And for that reason I think to myself, when it calls/means: yeah
