Damals wollt' ich erwachsen sein


Vor ein paar alten Fotos sitz ich nun seit Stunden
Ich habe ein Stückchen Erinnerung gefunden.
Unser Liebling im Garten, so steht drauf zu lesen,
Es ist an meinem fünften Geburtstag gewesen.
Die Mundharmonika hab ich damals bekommen
Und Vater hat mich mit in den Zirkus genommen.
Daß ich Lokführer werde, hatte ich längst entschieden,
Von den Träumen sind mir nur die Schranken geblieben.

Damals wollt' ich erwachsen sein,
Ich weiß das noch wie heut';
Wenn mich das Leben traurig macht,
Träum' ich von dieser Zeit

Das Beten war so einfach, es gab gar keine Zweifel,
Der liebe Gott war oben und ganz unten der Teufel.
Die Uhr an der Wand hing für mich da zur Zierde,
Ich ahnte nicht, daß sie einmal so wichtig sein würde.
Die Schmetterlinge waren viel bunter als heute
Und der Tod war nur etwas für ganz alte Leute.
Den Globus auf dem Schreibtisch seh' ich heute noch stehen,
Ich konnte mit zwei Fingern die Welt einfach drehen.
Refrain

So Worte wie Heimweh brauchte ich nicht zu kennen,
Ich brauchte nur abends nach Hause zu rennen,
Mit zerrissenen Hosen und aufgeschlagenen Knien,
Die Mutter hat geschimpft und dann hat sie's verziehen.
Für mein Knie und für alle Wehwehchen hat's eben
Bei ihr immer die richtige Salbe gegeben.
War ich wirklich mal traurig und mir kamen die Tränen;
Als Kind darf man weinen und braucht sich nicht zu schämen.

Refrain

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
