Uh, jeg ville ønske jeg var dig

Ooh, I'd wish I were you

Elsker man fuldt, elsker man helt If you love fully, you love entirely
Er ingen delt natur You're no divided nature
Og man er tro, tro mod amour And you're faithful, faithful to amour
Så vil jeg elskes igen Then I want to be loved back
Lyt derfor til mig, min ven Therefore listen to me, my friend
  
For uh... jeg ville ønske, jeg var dig For ooh, I'd wish I were you
Uh... hvor skulle jeg dog elske mig Ooh, how I'd love me
Klappe min kind og stryge mit hår Pat my cheek and stroke my hair
Og skænke mig sol og vår And give me sun and spring
Tusinde kys og tusinde kæl A thousand kisses and a thousand caresses
Det undte jeg tit mig selv I'd often grant myself
Så uh... jeg ville ønske, jeg var dig So ooh, I'd wish I were you
Uh... hvor skulle jeg knuselske mig Ooh, how I'd hug me
Sikke et sus og sikke et liv What a whirl and what a life
Og sikke et perspektiv And what a perspective
Ja, uh... jeg ville ønske, jeg var dig Yes, ooh, I'd wish I were you
  
Derfor spør' jeg dig: Gik du samme vej That's why I ask you: If you walked the same path
Og mødte du dig i kyssenes leg And if you met you in the play of the kisses
Hvis omvendt du var mig If, on the other hand, you were me
Når vi bli'r halvfems, si'r vi: Hvem er hvem's? When we are ninety, we'll say: Who's who's?
Fortryllende du, jeg synger som nu: Enchanting you, I sing like now:
Da du da da dej da du Da doo da da dey da doo
  
Så uh... jeg ville ønske, jeg var dig So ooh, I'd wish I were you
Uh... men hvis en dag du fri'r til mig Ooh, but if one day, you ask me to marry you
Så si'r jeg: Du, det gik som det sku' Then I'll say: You know, it went as it should
Så gifter du dig med mig Then you'll marry me
Så uh... det var da godt at du var dig So ooh, it was good that you were you
