Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Wenn Du Jetzt Hier Wärst by Revolverheld from German to English.

It's kinda a shame you're gone

I'd just gotten used to you

I ride my bike alone through the streets

And in town there's that föhn wind again today

I'm kinda listless, but not angry

Somewhere in between the pendulum stopped

And my inner voice says, "What's that about?"

But I don't feel like listening to it

And I'm smoking again, even if secretly

And I'm not seen outside till midday

I just make my loop across the neighborhood

Maybe to understand what's up with us

Hey, hello, how are you? All good

'Cause you can see the bags under my eyes

I'm not great at sleeping, but it'll be fine

In a few weeks, you'll see

If you were here now

I'd do a handstand for you

If you were here now

You'd laugh, whether you want to or not

I'd summon the good old times

And just stop listening to the skeletons in the closet

If you were here now

This summer's annoying without you

Everything's boring and kinda gray

The city's too loud and too dusty

And out in the country there's nobody at all

I start a thousand attempts, even try something new

I've long since seen all my old friends

I even went traveling, for a long time

But without you it's no fun

If you were here now

I'd do a handstand for you

If you were here now

You'd laugh, whether you want to or not

I'd summon the good old times

And just stop listening to the skeletons in the closet

If you were here now

If we were together and not each on our own

Together and not each on our own

If you were here now

I'd do a handstand for you

If you were here now

You'd laugh, whether you want to or not

I'd summon the good old times

And just stop listening to the skeletons in the closet

If you were here now

If we were together and not each on our own

If you were here now

SONG MEANING

„Wenn Du Jetzt Hier Wärst“ is a heartfelt postcard from loneliness. The narrator bikes through dusty streets, lights secret cigarettes, and tries every distraction imaginable, yet every corner of the city whispers the same thought: “It would all be better if you were here.” Revolverheld paint a vivid picture of that in-between mood where you are neither furious nor fine, just stuck in a grey summer that refuses to shine without the missing person.

Behind the catchy chorus lies a simple, charming promise: “I would even do a handstand to make you laugh.” The song celebrates nostalgia for “the good old times,” admits to sleepless nights and visible eye-bags, and dreams of swapping solo adventures for shared moments again. It is a mix of humor and homesickness that reminds us how the right person can turn an ordinary day into an adventure—and how their absence turns even adventures into ordinary days.
