Dir gehört die Welt English translation
von Peter Maffay & Johannes Oerding

Life doesn't always go smoothly
It comes with risks and side effects
But if everything were too perfect
Then happiness would just be a word
Everyone knows the feeling
The bedframe against your little toe
A red light comes out of nowhere
Wrong time, wrong place

Do you ever feel
Like life is stabbing you in the back?
Yeah, I know that feeling well
But what was dark will turn to light

Ooh, you'll see the sun again
The clouds will keep moving on
Ooh, sometimes you just have to change your sails
It's a good idea
If you can laugh even when you fall
Then the world is yours


There's no single recipe
For what makes up happiness
All roads lead to Rome
But there are a few ingredients you need
Take a pinch of humor and courage
And add a handful of friends
A good splash of self-irony
And then there's not much missing

Do you ever feel
Like life is stabbing you in the back?
Yeah, I know that feeling well
But what was dark will turn to light

Ooh, you'll see the sun again
The clouds will keep moving on
Ooh, sometimes you just have to change your sails
It's a good idea

If you can laugh even when you fall
Then the world is yours

Ooh, you'll see the sun again
The clouds will keep moving on
Ooh, sometimes you just have to change your sails
It's a good idea
If you can laugh even when you fall
Then the world is yours

If you can laugh even when you fall
Then the world is yours
