Vertaling van: Trijntje Oosterhuis - Waterkant
Walk with me, to the waterfront
We throw all the old clothes from us
We jump straight away in together, holding hands
Let the flow determine, what awaits us
Swim with me
To the other side
Please send your sorrows with the water to the sea
And open your eyes in an other country
Where we just start all over again, with the two of us
Cause all that kept me here
What was my home all the time
Everything I need
Is you
Let it storm
Let it blow
We cling together
You're safe here, close with me
All that possesions, that burdened us
Would surely disappear with time
What remains are we Run along with me
Through the friable sand
And the wind carries our past
With it
Richt through the surf we'll go
Hand in hand
To disappear into the waves
From the sea
Sail with me
To the other side
And put both our fate
In the hands of the tide
Burn our ships
Once we landed
And with nothing in our hands
We are free
Cause all that kept me here
What was my home all the time
Everything I need
Everything that is important to me
Everything I need
Is you
We throw all the old clothes from us
We jump straight away in together, holding hands
Let the flow determine, what awaits us
Swim with me
To the other side
Please send your sorrows with the water to the sea
And open your eyes in an other country
Where we just start all over again, with the two of us
Cause all that kept me here
What was my home all the time
Everything I need
Is you
Let it storm
Let it blow
We cling together
You're safe here, close with me
All that possesions, that burdened us
Would surely disappear with time
What remains are we Run along with me
Through the friable sand
And the wind carries our past
With it
Richt through the surf we'll go
Hand in hand
To disappear into the waves
From the sea
Sail with me
To the other side
And put both our fate
In the hands of the tide
Burn our ships
Once we landed
And with nothing in our hands
We are free
Cause all that kept me here
What was my home all the time
Everything I need
Everything that is important to me
Everything I need
Is you
