Bok van Blerk - Was (English lyrics)

When we were young still
When we were still able
Thoughts were still drunk
Our rent were always late
When windows were open
Your shirt was still a small
Your car still running

And laughter still a cure
The flag still our pride
And food not expensive
Your granddad your rock
Our roads were still gravel
Your letter still in ink
Your life still healthy
your future still shining

Here you are now
Here you are now
Where you wanted
Is this, afterall
Is this, afterall
What you wanted
What you wanted
Here we are now!

When we were still happy
birhtdays still a thing
When she was still next to you
and marriage more than just a ring
when rugby was a sport
values an honour
buildings still short
and lessons still learned

When mistakes were still seldom
and questions pondered
a hit still noisy
we were less damaged

When caring was valued
and thanks still given
when you were still okay
your hope not yet missing

Here you are now
Here you are now
Where you wanted
Is this, afterall
Is this, afterall
What you wanted
What you wanted
Here we are now!

Here you are now
Here you are now
Where you wanted
Is this, afterall
Is this, afterall
What you wanted
What you wanted
Here we are now!
