They call it the end of the world, but it's actually not that far And there's nothing to experience, but that's fine for a lifetime One pub in one go It's nothing to write about at home I don't have to if I can stay at home I don't know every last name in the square I don't want to be anywhere, it's too quiet here on the other side But I'm coming from here Where you can just walk past by bike And stay on the road And from time to time the taste of the city can still seduce me But my thoughts tell me that I should have stayed here But far away from everything, everyone is close to me And it's true what they said It's too quiet here on the other side But that doesn't matter, I'm coming home somewhere else And yes, there are trains running here On the banks of the IJssel If you want to make a career, you don't have to stay here But roads run here that lead to Rome and go into the woods Where the party of the year is, the black cross Where the glass is not half empty, but half full And an open door is loose It's nothing to write about at home I don't have to if I can stay at home I don't know every name and every square I'd rather be nowhere It's too quiet here on the other side But I'm coming from here Where you can just walk past by bike And stay on the road And from time to time the taste of the city can still seduce me But my thoughts tell me that I should have stayed here But far away from everything, everyone is close to me And it's true what they said It's too quiet here on the other side Fortunately, there is still a lot to do here and the air is damn clean It's too quiet here on the other side Because everyone is going to study somewhere else, going to try It's too quiet here on the other side No disco to get to know, but it's not unpleasant for a long time It's too quiet here on the other side It's the warm greeting in the west where they say That it's quiet on the other side But I'm coming from here Where you can just walk past by bike And stay on the road And from time to time the taste of the city can still seduce me But my thoughts tell me that I should have stayed here But far away from everything, everyone is close to me And it's true what they said It's too quiet here on the other side
