Butterfly Effect English translation
von Max Giesinger

If everything hadn't banged around our ears in the beginning
If the earth had been an inanimate point in space
If we hadn't built houses, roads and then cities
Not believed in gods, fairy tales or love

If Grandpa hadn't made it out of the war back then
If Grandma hadn't made eyes at him then
If my dad had gone home with someone else after the disco
If mum hadn't dared to have her first kiss

If it hadn't all happened like that
Ey, then I wouldn't be here with you now

If something had turned out differently
Then we would never have discovered each other
Butterfly effect
If we'd turned off somewhere else at some point
We would never have discovered each other
Butterfly effect (uh)

Butterfly effect (uh, uh)
Butterfly effect (uh)


It's crazy, even ′a little thing
Sets a chain in motion and changes time
Throwing stones into the lake and watching the waves
Remake the future with everything we do

There are miracles in big and small things
At some point, the very first butterfly emerged
I owe him and his flapping wings
That I'm lying here now with you in my arms

Because if it hadn't happened like this, yeah
Ey, then you wouldn't be here with me today

If something had turned out differently at some point
Then we would never have discovered each other
Butterfly effect
If we'd taken a different turn somewhere
We would never have discovered each other
Butterfly effect (uh)

Butterfly effect (uh, uh)
Butterfly effect (uh, uh)

(Uh, uh)
Butterfly effect (uh)
