We Just Want To Be Together

Click to see the original lyrics (German)
Imagine you're coming to East Berlin
And there you meet a really hot girl
A really hot girl from Pankow 1
And you think she's really grand
And she thinks the same about you
 
Then it's already gone so far
You feel that you'd like to be together
And you dream of a rock festival at Alexanderplatz 2
With the Rolling Stones and a band from Moscow
 
But suddenly it's already ten past eleven
And she says: Hey, you have to get back over there by twelve at the latest
Otherwise there'll be a lot of hassle
Because you only have a one-day-visa
 
Girl from East Berlin
That was really hard
I had to go, although I would have loved to stay a little bit longer
I'll come back
And maybe someday without all this hassle
Something must be done in the long run!
 
I hope the guys fix this soon
Because we just want to be together
Maybe for a bit longer
Maybe a little closer
We just want to be together

That's wrong:
>"Stell' dir vor, du kommst nach Ost-Berlin"
Imagine, you're coming to East Berlin

Some suggestions:

>" Und du findest sie sehr bedeutend"
alt.:
And you think she's really grand
And she thinks the same about you

>" Denn du hast ja nur 'n Tagesschein"
Because you only have a one-day-visa

>" Ich musste geh'n, obwohl ich so gerne noch geblieben wär'
I had to go, although I would have loved to stay a little bit longer
