Was wäre wenn English translation
von Clueso

Warm air from subway stairs like a breath of the city
As we drag ourselves forward, everyone has distant goals
Paint is dripping from old cans right next to the café
A small, colorful puddle collects stories here

And if he wasn't wearing this shirt, which he actually doesn't like at all
Shouldn't she have smiled on her first day
And if he had liked the film, maybe she wouldn't have cried
But he did not comfort her and would still be alone today

If I hadn't lost anything back then, we wouldn't have known each other at all
And if the iceberg wasn't there, the ship wouldn't have sunk either
And if we never got together, we would never have to separate
I keep asking myself what if

What happened if
What happened if
What happened if


The big city stays fast, what will they tell about us?
Houses, shadows, steep walls, how many dreams are shattered here
How many sunsets you don't see down here
Houses keep growing taller and problems run deep

And if he had kept his mouth shut instead of that one sentence
If everything were still the same, she would still be sitting where she was
But if she hadn't left then, neither of them would be free now
But if they are honest with themselves, that was the best for the two

If I hadn't lost anything back then, we wouldn't have known each other at all
And if Nero hadn't been born, Rome wouldn't have burned
And if we never got together, we would never have to separate
I keep asking myself what if

what if (what if)
what if (what if)
