Fur Immer Jung (Feat. Karel Gott)
Bushido
Forever Young (Feat. Karel Gott)
Refrain [Karel Gott]:
Forever young, a lifetime forever young,
You must remember the good times
Because nothing lasts forever
Forever young, a lifetime forever young,
You must remember the good times
Because nothing lasts forever
1st Verse [Bushido]:
You don't give a damn about those who talk nonsense
Because you remain a man of action
Working hard right now
The whole damn day
You feel old and weak
You feel drained
And the damn boss takes out his bad mood on you
What a clown during breaks
10 years of blood and sweat
You look in the mirror
That look says: 'Enough, it's sufficient!'
Silence with your wife, sorrow
Is she cheating?
Do you really have the strength to spy on the dog?
The kids have lied to you too
Whether smoking, partying, drinking, drugs
You didn't raise your blood that way
Everyone thinks of themselves, but who thinks of you?
Formerly college jackets, now the suit
You don't recognize yourself!
This life is just cold and hard
And every year a few more wrinkles come
Tell me, how much would you love to fly free like an eagle right now
Not wasting any more thoughts on eventually lying in a coffin.
Refrain [Karel Gott]:
Forever young, a lifetime forever young,
You must remember the good times
Because nothing lasts forever
Forever young, a lifetime forever young,
You must remember the good times
Because nothing lasts forever
2nd Verse [Bushido]:
Your parents are old and sick now
And it's like a bad movie
And you're praying to God now: 'Please keep him here!'
It feels like yesterday
You were just 9
Your first goal
One is proud when the father is happy
He was your coach
Kicked the ball in front of the house
Today the man walks bent with a cane into the house
You're sad, this man who was outside with you every day
Sits all alone at the kitchen table and now has cataracts
He's sick, sick because he's missing a kidney
The cane accompanies him when he goes for a walk today
She's worse off than him, but no one cares
The doctor usually gives her the final appointment
Who can turn back time here?
He gives her that strength again
She's weak, look
She can only walk bent over
And all you have left is your memory
Everything is transient,
but we would like to be forever young, forever young
Refrain [Karel Gott]:
Forever young, a lifetime forever young,
You must remember the good times
Because nothing lasts forever
Forever young, a lifetime forever young,
You must remember the good times
Because nothing lasts forever
3rd Verse [Bushido]:
How much I would like to say now
'Hope dies last'
What have I done?
Why does God punish me with this bad luck?
When will I realize that nothing here lasts forever?
That everything will eventually break
And then I'll be sitting in the ruins
Enjoy the moment when you're with your friends
That moment with your mother, because then she's happy
One day she'll leave, enjoy the moment
That you're sharing with her right now, she doesn't need anything else
And this damn habit, everyone thinks of themselves
Children stress their father until he simply breaks
Until he just can't anymore
And doesn't want to talk anymore
Because he wants to be young again
And wants to live too
Nothing lasts forever
We would like to be forever young
Let's spend the time that remains
Just enjoying it
Forget the tough job for a day
Get the Ray Bans now, the blue jeans
Sing for them, Karel Gott!
Refrain [Karel Gott]:
Forever young, a lifetime forever young,
You must remember the good times
Because nothing lasts forever
Forever young, a lifetime forever young,
I will simply give everything
A lifetime forever young
I will simply give everything
Forever in life
Forever, forever... FOREVER YOUNG!
