Schouder Aan Schouder Lyrics in English Marco Borsato , Guus Meeuwis

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Schouder Aan Schouder by Marco Borsato from Dutch to English.
Verse 1
We stand shoulder to shoulder
I glance sideways
Verse 1
The look in your eyes says everything to me
The world is open
Plenty of chances
Verse 1
Whoever's afraid of mistakes
Never does it right
Chorus 1
Sun or rain
Wind with or against us
Chorus 1
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
It'll go by itself
Chorus 1
Blind with trust
Half a word's enough
Chorus 1
Shoulder to shoulder
As if someone carries you
Chorus 1
The best lies ahead of us
The best lies ahead of us
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
Verse 2
Shoulder to shoulder with the same goal
From the same wood, with the same feeling
Whatever happens, we can handle it all
As long as we stand shoulder to shoulder
Chorus 2
Sun or rain
Wind with or against us
Chorus 2
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
It'll go by itself
Chorus 2
Blind with trust
Half a word's enough
Chorus 2
Shoulder to shoulder
As if someone carries you
Chorus 2
The best lies ahead of us
The best lies ahead of us
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
Bridge
Shoulder to shoulder with the same goal
Chorus 3
Sun or rain
Wind with or against us
Chorus 3
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
It'll go by itself
Chorus 3
Blind with trust
Half a word's enough
Chorus 3
Shoulder to shoulder
As if someone carries you
Chorus 3
The best lies ahead of us
The best lies ahead of us
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder
If we stand shoulder to shoulder

Whether it’s sun or rain, wind at your back or in your face, the song insists that life’s challenges feel lighter when you face them together—almost as if someone is carrying you.

At its core, the track is a pep-talk set to music. It reminds us that shared goals, mutual trust, and the feeling of “I’ve got your back” turn obstacles into opportunities.
