Lyrics
Der Sommer war hei und lang
Auer Lernen war nichts erlaubt
Wir hatten die erste Band
War`n zum ersten Mal richtig blau
Die Taschen leer — die Haare wurden lnger
Die Welt war uns zu klein
Die Lehrer streng — die Eltern noch viel strenger
Doch wir waren frei
Der Sommer von damals
War totales Leben
Wir waren jung und immer dagegen
Der Sommer von damals — vorbei
Der Sommer von damals
Hat uns viel gegeben
Wir waren so jung — doch mitten im Leben
Der Sommer von damals — vorbei
Woodstock war viel zu weit
Mit`m Mofa der Welt entfloh`n
Love and peace gesucht
Uns`re Unschuld dabei verlor`n
Dein Kleid war eng — der Rcksitz noch viel enger
Die Welt war uns zu klein
Lyrics translation
The summer was hot and long
Auer learning was not allowed
We had the first Band
Was ' N for the first time really blue
The pockets empty-the hair became longer
The world was too small for us
Teachers strict-parents even more strict
But we were free
The summer of that time
Was total life
We were young and always
The summer of that time-over
The summer of that time
Has given us a lot
We were so young — but in the middle of life
The summer of that time-over
Woodstock was way too far
Escape the world with a moped
Love and peace wanted
Us ' re innocence thereby lost`N
Your dress was tight — the rear seat even tighter
The world was too small for us
