Conny Stuart & Freddy Albeck & Met Man En Muis (1969) - Baby, We're Getting Old lyrics

Your rating:

Darling we’re getting old
older and older and older.
Put Your head on my shoulder.
We’re getting old
Very old, a hundred years old.
Darling we’re getting old:
Ouwer en ouwer en ouwer
But time has no power
All our troubles have gone,
Als sneeuw voor de zon 
All our troubles are gone.

The same old skye
The same old moon
The same old foolish people
precies als toen.
We had a lot of morals
Ontzetend veel ruzies
Er bleef niet veel over van onze illusies.
Your were jealous and wild.
Ik sloeg je
I hit back
I liked it
Thank you Hi hi
Later ging het niet gek.
Dank zij mijn takt,
In spite of your tact
Because of my tact
Ondanks jouw takt
Very poor we were
Zo arm als Job,
No income, no money
I was out of a job.
And our children …
De kinderen ging niet best
Drie domme uilen
En zo dwars als de pest.
But now they are married
En toch nog iets bereikt 
Toch iets geworden
Hoe gek het ook lijkt.
Dank zij mijn aanpak
In spite of your aanpak
Dank zij mijn aanpak
ondanks jouw aanpak.
It does not matter any more
It does not matter any more

Darling we worden oud
Zitten maar suffig te soezen
Als twee stokoude poezen
Honderd jaar getrouwd
A thousand years

Darling we’re getting tired
Ouwer en moeier en dover
But our troubles are over
all our troubles are gone
oh ja? oh ja!
all our troubles are gone

The world has changed
de wind is gedraaid.
En wat we geloofden is weggewaaid.
Now God is dead
Or so we are told
And if not he must be very sick and old
Do you remember the way that we felt
Geen oorlog meer
En nooit meer geweld.
Now just look around you
Ondanks de goeie will
Inspite of all their talkiing
We are going down the hill
And we cant stop it anymore
And we cant stop it anymore.

The world is getting colder
Colder and colder and colder
Put your head on my shoulder
Its getting cold
All around every where
Yes darling, het word koud
Kouwer en kouwer en kouwer.
In a world full of power
All our hopes they are gone
Als sneeuw voor de zon
All our hopes they are gone

The same old sun
The same old skye
The same old young couple.
Precies als wij!
Those very young people 
In the same old rain
En deze zelfde planeet
They’ll have to fix it again
Het ligt aan hen.
Those fools….. God forbid
Misschien doen ze ’t beter
Than we ever did?
In spite of their hair
Of dankzij dat haar
In spite of their manners
In spite of their manners
In spite on their clothes
Because of their manners
And banners, who knows
Perhaps they will succeed
Love is all they need……

Darling we’re getting old
Ouwer en ouwer en ouwer
but time has no power 
Zo lang als jij van me houdt
As long as you love me.
Darling we’re getting young
Jonger and jonger en jonger.
Wont be old any longer
We have only begun
We’re still hopping about
Still shouting aloud
Still strolling along
Still living and singing
And dancing and swinging
Still living and singing
And dancing and swinging
Still going strong….
