We’re all familiar with that sense of nostalgia when it comes to childhood memories up until the age of twenty-one. At a certain point in your life, you may even start to feel positively about the less pleasant situations from the past, because the puzzle of life falls into place and you can look back with a sense of contentment and a bittersweet feeling on how you were shaped by the ups and downs.
We kennen allemaal wel het gevoel van nostalgie wat betreft jeugdherinneringen tot het eenentwintigste levensjaar. Op een bepaald moment in je leven kun je zelfs een goed gevoel krijgen over de minder leuke situaties uit het verleden, omdat de puzzel van het leven in elkaar valt en je met een voldane rust en een bitterzoet gevoel kunt terugkijken op hoe je gevormd bent door de pieken en dalen.

Bittersweet
Verse: 01
In the quiet corners of my mind, where bittersweet used to play.
There were nights of restless dreaming, chasing moments that
slipped away.
Every scar and every stumble, every tear that fell down like rain.
Now they glow like gentle fireflies, lighting up my heart again.
Bridge: 01
Once I ran through storms, feeling lost and alone.
But now I see those roads brought me home.
Chorus: 01
All, the pain of youth, it sings a tender song.
Every memory, right or wrong.
Turns to gold when the years pass by,
and I hold my past like fireflies in the sky.
Verse: 02
Memories and all those thoughts stick on you when you grow old.
I learned to wear my battles, like a treasure made of gold.
Laughter mixed with heartaches, all the dreams that slipped through hands.
They are the stories that I carry, as an old dear friend.
Bridge: 02
Once I ran through storms, feeling lost and alone.
But now I see those roads brought me home.
Chorus: 02
All, the pain of youth, it sings a tender song,
Every memory, right or wrong,
Turns to gold when the years pass by,
And I hold my past like fireflies in the sky.
Bridge: 03
No more running from the shadows.
No more hiding from the night.
Every moment that once hurt me.
Shines now in a softer light.
Chorus: 03
All, the pain of youth, it sings a tender song.
Every memory, right or wrong.
Turns to gold when the years pass by.
And I hold my past like fireflies in the sky.
End:
Yes, I live with my past, it feels like coming home.
And now I know, where I belong.
