All die Dinge [English translation]

If I could have – then I would have

Gone back to the moment of

Silent movies of that time

And learn to talk

Turn back – the clock hands

Take a quick flight back there

Through time, with that what I know

Right now

Let me do all the things

That I’ve never done

Let me do all the things

Which I never had time for

Let me redo all the things

Which never worked

Let me say all the things

Which I never said

There are so many things

Which I need to fix

And need to give back

There are so many words

Which I need to revise

And need to take back

If I could have - then I would have

Highlighted or simply struck

Chapters from the screenplay

And I’d know why

My questions would have been smarter

My words, somewhat wiser

The idiots would have been quieter

I would have had feeling

But there’s no turning back

Just move on, no turning back

Yeah, there’s no turning back

Just move on, no turning back

Let me do all the things

That I’ve never done

Let me do all the things

Which I’ve never had time for

Let me redo all the things

Which have never worked

Let me say all the things

Which I never said

There are so many things

Which I need to fix

And need to give back

There are so many words

Which I need to revise

And need to take back

Let me do all the things

That I’ve never done

Let me say all the things

Which I never said

There are so many things

Which I need to fix

And need to give back

There are so many words

Which I need to revise

And need to take back
