Vertaling van: Trijntje Oosterhuis - Waarom

Look at me
Did you ever think we would be here together
Side by side
I can't believe it
How many times I've almost left you
Or you me
But every time you were almost outside
Then I grabbed your hands
And you came back
And every time I said I would go
You came come after me again
And I've never regretted it
No, not for a moment

So why are you telling me now it's over
And why are you so sure
If the water was up to our neck for both of us
Or if one of us didn't like it anymore
There was always the other one who said softly
I love you so much Look at me
We've been in the storm together so many times
In the sea
With towering waves
Were stronger than the strongest hurricane
The two of us

Whenever I woukd almost drown
I clung to you
And you were there
Or I came to you and caught
You up when you almost went under
And I've never regretted it
No, not for a moment

So why are you telling me now it's over
And why are you so sure
If the water was up to our neck for both of us
Or if one of us didn't like it anymore
There was always the other one who said softly
I love you so much, I love so much
You
So much
