When we were young
– Xa sisebancinci
It seemed that life was so wonderful
– Kwabonakala ukuba ubomi babumnandi kangaka
A colorful miracle
– Ummangaliso omibalabala
Remember how everything was so beautiful?
– Khumbula ukuba yonke into yayihle kangaka?
I miss the old days when the skies were blue
– Ndiyakhumbula iintsuku zakudala xa isibhakabhaka sasiluhlaza
I miss the long nights stayin’ up with you
– Ndikhumbula ezinzulwini zobusuku ndihleli nawe
I miss the summer ’cause we were in it together
– Ndikhumbula ihlobo kuba sasikunye
I miss my hometown, don’t you miss it too?
– Ndiyakhumbula ikhaya lam, akunjalo?
Drivin’ to nowhere, nothing else to do
– Home “sweatshirts” nothing else to do
I miss the old days, I wish they lasted forever
– Ndikhumbula iimini ezindala, ndinqwenela ukuba zihlale ngonaphakade
When we were young
– Xa sisebancinci
It seemed that life was so wonderful
– Kwabonakala ukuba ubomi babumnandi kangaka
A colorful miracle
– Ummangaliso omibalabala
Remember how everything was so beautiful?
– Khumbula ukuba yonke into yayihle kangaka?
Whoa, when we were young
– Whoo hoo while we’re young
It seemed that life was so simple then
– Kwakubonakala ngathi ubomi babulula ngoko
So innocent, infinite
– Innocent, infinity
Look at us now, it’s so different, isn’t it?
– Look, don’t look yet, okay?
I miss the ocean, the hair across your face
– I’m missin ‘ you, sweatshirt
The little moments before we moved away
– Amaxesha ambalwa ngaphambi kokuba sihambe
And lookin’ back now, we should’ve stayed there forever
– Kwaye ngoku, xa sijonga emva, kufuneka sihlale apho ngonaphakade
And now we’re over the moon, and we’re under the stars
– Kwaye ngoku siphezu kwenyanga, kwaye siphantsi kweenkwenkwezi
Know where we’ve been and we know who we are
– Yazi apho besikhona kwaye siyazi ukuba singoobani
And even as time goes by, I’ll always remember
– Kwaye njengoko ixesha lihamba, ndiya kuhlala ndikhumbula
When we were young
– Xa sisebancinci
It seemed that life was so wonderful
– Kwabonakala ukuba ubomi babumnandi kangaka
A colorful miracle
– Ummangaliso omibalabala
Remember how everything was so beautiful?
– Khumbula ukuba yonke into yayihle kangaka?
Whoa, when we were young
– Whoo hoo while we’re young
It seemed that life was so simple then
– Kwakubonakala ngathi ubomi babulula ngoko
So innocent, infinite
– Innocent, infinity
Look at us now, it’s so different, isn’t it?
– Look, don’t look yet, okay?
