Het Werd Zomer - Tonny & Popeye

I'm singing this beautiful Dutch ballad together with my loving husband, we both love this song! We're not trying to immitate anyone and sing the song on our own way! So please judge us by that!

On request lyrics freely translated in English:

It seemed like summer,
but it was only the end of May.
A day of which you think,
it is here to stay.

My friends all came along,
but I just wanted to stroll along the beach
for a little while.
Then I saw you, You called me with your eyes,
I looked up, and felt a warm surprise.
I understood what you wanted to ask me,
Come closer to me...

I was sixteen, and you were twenty-eight.
And I didn't knew much about love yet,
But I understood what you wanted to say
I wasn't a child anymore;

You were so free, I thought there was magic in the air.
You wore nothing else than your waist-long blonde hair.
I was so shy, and didn't know what to do.
I just stood there watching,
Oh I never felt so green.

I understand you, I heard you say
You are still so young, and haven't gone all the way.
But don't be afraid, the night will lead you through it,
Come closer to me...

We walked together Further along the beach
And as a boy I reached for your hand
But as a man I saw the sun rise again
And it was summer...

It was summer For the first time in my life,
It was summer for The very first time.
And I was a man when the sun came up again
And it was summer...
Then it was summer.

Dit nummer vind ik zo mooi ik nam afscheid van me moeder en zei tegen haar dag mamma ik ga samen met Ron 14 dagen weg het word de zomer van me leven en binnen 4 dagen stond ik totaal ondreddert op schiphol mijn moeder had zelf de beslissing genomen  om uit dit leven testappen en ik was juist zo gelukkig voor het eerst samen weg dus ik was ook een vrouw toen de zon weer opkwam maar helaas de zomer werd aprubt afgebroken en ik mis me moeder nog iedere dag maar denk wel aan haar iedere zomer Syll

Oh wat verschrikkelijk triest voor je!!

Ik ben er stil van! Ik hoop dat je die schok inmiddels een beetje te boven bent gekomen? Ja je moeder zul je altijd missen, dat blijft zo ook als ze op latere leeftijd heengaan, die wil je nooit kwijt! Maar op deze manier... ooh ik leef echt met je mee! Hartelijk dank voor het delen van je gedachten en ik wens je toch nog veel plezier toe in het leven!

Lieve groetjes, Tonny Felicia.

I have to go back to this one. You 2 did a very splendid job and I really like watching you 2 singing together. It's beautiful to listen to though I don't understand a single word. Do you have an English translation ?
