Текст песни When We Were Winning (Broder Daniel) с переводом

Oh when we were seventeen

Oh life was like a film

When we were seventeen

The sky was always tangerine

We ran through streets at night

Under starlight

We ran through streets at night

When we were winning

Oh wild was the world

And wild we burned

We were kings of the streets

Not yet beaten by defeats

But now it’s hard to see

Through a fog of memories

But I remember

When we were winning

Now my friends are unemployed

Not needed in this world

Pushed down by this town and always turned down

But in dreams at night

They can sometimes recall

When we were heroes

When we were winning

There was a girl that I loved

I have her photograph

It seems long ago

Or was it yesterday?

She was a glimpse of life

A life that I missed

The chance I ever got

When we were winning

I thought I saw here today

Thru a crowd in the street

I tried to run up to her

And my heart was beating fast

But she was already gone

She was lost in the crowd

But will I see her again

In the street or on a bus?

And can it be true

Love never really dies

And is there still a chance

The fire never dies

I was out walking yesterday

I passed my old school

And I started to think back

To when I was a boy there

And all my classmates

They got real jobs now

But we are walking along

The same streets were I was born

What have we done to our lives?

We could’ve been anything

We gave it our love for what?

This is the time

And when I was growing up

My mom held a job

Employed by the state

At the local school

She used to smell of cinnamon

As she always used to sing

She let her hair down in spring

When we were winning

But she was worned out

She had to quit her job

And after 30 years of work

Now shes got nothing

She says she hates her life

And her marriage has failed

But don’t lay down and die

Pleeease be alive

Oh it’s in the air at night

There’s a wind coming in

The days dying

Oh it’s so beautiful

There’s something happening somewhere

I take the bus in to town

All I see is laughing

And we are winning

Soon I grow older

But god knows I haven’t lived yet

Before tonight’s the memory

Let’s go out

I’m still young

Ahhhhh aaaaahh aaaaaah aaaaaaah

Aaaaahhh aaaaah aaaaaaaaaah

Life doesn’t wait
