Vertaling van: Veldhuis & Kemper - Ik Heb Een Zoon

I've heard that phrase at least a thousand times
But it never affected me me
It's such a sentence out of thousands
But it didn't really mean anything to me
But now that I say it myself
It sounds different than before

I have a son
I have a son

It's just all I found with her
I find a second time again
And what I had already started
Now it really starts
And everything seems so different
So much different than before
It sounds so ordinary

I have a son

You're holding me the same now
Like I did with him
You're looking for my hands by touch
And listen to my voice
Like I did with him I didn't know something so small
Could be so big at the same time
So big that it almost hurts
But without pain
Of everything I said, nothing hit me yet

I have a son

You look at me questioningly and I pretend I know
That I would do it just like he did that for me
Of all my certainties, one predominates
It sounds so ordinary

I am a son

Nothing is more important and everything more so
It sounds so ordinary
