When I met my wife almost 25 years ago, none of my friends and relatives gave a single damn about this relationship. We were quarrelling often and got into each other's hair over every little thing.
Interestingly however, some couples, who at that time were somewhat complacent about their great harmony, are no longer together today. At some point, so much conflict dirt had accumulated under the flowery carpet, that the permanent smile turned into hostility, contempt and finally: Separation.
My wife and I still quarrel today - although not as intensely and often as before. But then as now these sometimes painful disputes often lead to a an even deeper and more tender encounter.
In view of this dialectic, I had the idea of naming this song, which describes our relationship, "Wild Harps".
Wild Harps
No, that's not possible
No, it can't be
These perennial squabblers
Can't even be together anymore
Always murder and mayhem
With a lot of screaming and door slamming
Come on, don't tell me lies
That's all over and done with already
Ooh no, it's true
Wild Harps
Do they stick together
This couple, that lives
In spite of minor scratches
I bet it goes on forever
Even further
Many friends thought
They won't last long
How they clashed
The safety fuse is about to blow
Harmony and peace
Was a foreign word for them
Many marriages have been divorced
But they survived every relationship murder
Ooh yes, it's true
Wild Harps
Do they stick together
This couple, that lives
Even with small scratches
I bet, that this forever...
I bet, that this forever...
I bet, that this forever...
...Goes on
... That this goes on
Bet, bet...
...That this goes on
Bet, bet...
...That this goes on
Deutscher Originaltext:
Wilde Harfen
Nein, das gibt`s doch gar nicht
Nein, das kann nicht sein
Diese ewigen Streithammel
Können doch gar nicht mehr zusammensein
Ständig Mord und Todschlag
Mit viel Geschrei und Türenknall`n
Komm erzähl mir keine Lügen
Das ist doch schon längst aus und vorbei
Ooh nein, es ist wahr
Wilde Harfen
Halten die zusammen
Dieses Paar, das lebt
Trotz kleiner Schrammen
Wetten, dass das noch ewig weitergeht
Noch weitergeht
Viele Freunde dachten
Das halten die nicht lange aus
Wie die aufeinander krachten
Da fliegt die Sicherung doch gleich raus
Harmonie und Frieden
War für die beiden ein Fremdwort
Viele Ehen wurden schon geschieden
Doch sie überlebten jeden Beziehungsmord
Ooh ja, es ist wahr
Wilde Harfen
Halten die zusammen
Dieses Paar, das lebt
Trotz kleiner Schrammen.
Wetten, dass das noch ewig weiter…
Wetten, dass das noch ewig weiter…
Wetten, dass das noch ewig weiter…
….Geht
….daß das noch weitergeht
Wetten, Wetten…
…daß das noch weitergeht
Wetten, Wetten…
…daß das noch weitergeht
