Tempelhofer Feld [English translation]

[Verse 1: Alexa Feser]

Why are you in such a hurry?

Tell me what's waiting for you

Taking every half-red traffic light

Push the pedal till it breaks

Taking corners like Lauda did in the ring in '76

Wherever you're goin' you don't have to go

Wouldn't you rather be

The way you used to be

[Bridge: Alexa Feser]

Your tapes in the boombox

And in the cooler wine

And the boys were on vacation

In the summer of 2009

[Chorus: Alexa Feser]

We were hi-hi-hi-hi-high

Like the kites over Tempelhofer Field

We were free-ee-ee-ee

Like the kites over Tempelhofer Field

And the world set its clock not by the sun

But according to us

We were hi-hi-hi-hi-high

Like the kites over Tempelhofer Field

[Verse 2: Disarstar]

Hey, with the years worries don't become less

Rather tend to become more

We say we stay true to ourselves, yeah

But change a lot

Sure, you're there for your kids

And spontaneity is a thing of the past

No more tree house, no more gut feeling

We're out in the world, we're seeing other people's faces

Yes, we were just here

Always two, never alone, no, for us there was only the we

That still gives me good thoughts, yo

Here where dreams land in planes

[Bridge: Alexa Feser]

Your tapes in the boombox

And in the cooler wine

And the boys were on vacation

In the summer of 2009

[Chorus: Alexa Feser]

We were hi-hi-hi-hi-high

Like the kites over Tempelhofer Field

We were free-ee-ee-ee

Like the kites over Tempelhofer Field

And the world set its clock not by the sun

But according to us

We were hi-hi-hi-hi-high

Like the kites over Tempelhofer Field
