Griechenland STS cover

My first German cover, though this is actually sung in Austrian German , which is quite difficult to pronounce for me [servus, Gov Schwarzenegger ;-)].
Taped this because I'm sick and tired of this winter, though it's not that cold this year.
The song is about leaving home for good to live in a beautiful place at the seaside, which in the song happens to be in Greece.

Here is a kind of broad translation:

Last summer was so beautiful
I was lying on the beach in some bay
The sun like fire on my skin
You smell the water and nothing's loud
Somewhere in Greece, lots of white sand
With just your hand on my back

After two or three weeks I felt it
I inhaled the meaning of life
Your thoughts start turning 'round
Everything that seemed important back home now seems so dumb
You're lying under an olive tree and you're playing with some stones
It's so different from home

Chorus
And one day I'll stay there, leave everything behind
Leave my home for good
That I promise, no matter how many years it'll take
One day I'll stay there

This old world is in a rush
It's all about money and power
Bankers are chasing you, you never seem to make ends meet
And some day you start wondering "Why am I tormenting myself here instead of being
somewhere else?"

Solo

But you're not ready, yet
Your vanity pushes you to do some more here
But before an infarction reduces you to a baby in diapers at the age of 40
I'll be lying somewhere on the beach, a bottle of red wine in my hand
And my feet covered in white sand...
Chorus
