S'liad vom Opa traducción al Inglés

I always thought I knew exactly what I wanted
Today I'm 83 and not much else
All my life I've searched and dug and poured and suppressed
And today I'm glad if my grandson still recognizes me

Time to turn back I have not, and a certainly no strength
Which is why I'd be happy if you'd let me talk for a minute
I know I've done a lot wrong and I know that hurts you
Only I won't come down, not even for a quick coffee
Only I won't come down, not even for a quick coffee

So listen to me now, because tomorrow it might be too late
Fuck you nothing, then you miss nothing and please go your way
And when someone thinks that you can't take it and that it's gonna be nothing
That's what you say, nice that you already know today, what might happen tomorrow
That's what you say, nice that you already know today, what might happen tomorrow

Take a good look at your girl, and if it should be at your child
And give him time until he finds his own way in life
And before you save yourself, as often as you can and live out
That later, when you find it, you just don't need it anymore

And it doesn't matter if you're an assembly line worker or a doctor
Stand to yourself, to your mistakes and with broad legs
Stand to yourself, to your mistakes and with broad legs

I think it's as simple as it always sounds
Only sometimes it takes someone who tells you and sings you
And when you ever wonder, what did he mean by that?
What you're laughing about today, I was just yesterday
