Where Were You (When the World Stopped Turning)
ALAN JACKSON
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
That September day?
Were you in the yard with your wife and children
Or workin' on some stage in L.A.?
Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that black smoke
Risin' against that blue sky?
Did you shout out in anger, in fear for your neighbor
Or did you just sit down and cry?
Did you weep for the children, they lost their dear loved ones
Pray for the ones who don't know?
Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble
And sob for the ones left below?
Did you burst out with pride for the red, white, and blue
And the heroes who died just doin' what they do?
Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer
And look at yourself and what really matters?
I'm just a singer of simple songs
I'm not a real political man
I watch CNN, but I'm not sure I can tell you
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
And I remember this from when I was young
Faith, hope, and love are some good things He gave us
And the greatest is love
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
That September day?
Teachin' a class full of innocent children
Or drivin' down some cold interstate?
Did you feel guilty 'cause you're a survivor?
In a crowded room did you feel alone?
Did you call up your mother and tell her you love her?
Did you dust off that Bible at home?
Did you open your eyes and hope it never happened
Close your eyes and not go to sleep?
Did you notice the sunset for the first time in ages
And speak to some stranger on the street?
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow
Go out and buy you a gun?
Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watchin'
And turn on I Love Lucy reruns?
Did you go to a church and hold hands with some strangers
Stand in line to give your own blood?
Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family
Thank God you had somebody to love?
I'm just a singer of simple songs
I'm not a real political man
I watch CNN, but I'm not sure I can tell you
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
And I remember this from when I was young
Faith, hope, and love are some good things He gave us
And the greatest is love
I'm just a singer of simple songs
I'm not a real political man
I watch CNN, but I'm not sure I can tell you
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
And I remember this from when I was young
Faith, hope, and love are some good things He gave us
And the greatest is love
And the greatest is love
And the greatest is love
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
On that September day?
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
Wo warst du, als die Welt aufhörte sich zu drehen
That September day?
An jenem Septembertag?
Were you in the yard with your wife and children
Warst du im Garten mit deiner Frau und deinen Kindern
Or workin' on some stage in L.A.?
Oder auf irgendeiner Bühne in L.A.?
Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that black smoke
Standest du da im Schock beim Anblick dieses schwarzen Rauchs
Risin' against that blue sky?
Der gegen den blauen Himmel aufstieg?
Did you shout out in anger, in fear for your neighbor
Hast du aus Wut geschrien, aus Angst um deinen Nachbarn
Or did you just sit down and cry?
Oder hast du dich einfach hingesetzt und geweint?
Did you weep for the children, they lost their dear loved ones
Hast du um die Kinder geweint, die ihre Liebsten verloren haben
Pray for the ones who don't know?
Gebetet für die, die es nicht wissen?
Did you rejoice for the people who walked from the rubble
Hast du dich für die Menschen gefreut, die aus den Trümmern kamen
And sob for the ones left below?
Und für die, die unten geblieben sind, geweint?
Did you burst out with pride for the red, white, and blue
Hast du vor Stolz für das Rot, Weiß und Blau geplatzt
And the heroes who died just doin' what they do?
Und die Helden, die einfach nur das taten, was sie tun?
Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer
Hast du zum Himmel aufgeschaut, um eine Art Antwort zu finden
And look at yourself and what really matters?
Und dich selbst und das, was wirklich zählt, betrachtet?
I'm just a singer of simple songs
Ich bin nur ein Sänger einfacher Lieder
I'm not a real political man
Ich bin kein wirklicher politischer Mann
I watch CNN, but I'm not sure I can tell you
Ich schaue CNN, aber ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob ich dir
The diff'rence in Iraq and Iran
Den Unterschied zwischen dem Irak und dem Iran erklären kann
But I know Jesus and I talk to God
Aber ich kenne Jesus und ich spreche mit Gott
And I remember this from when I was young
Und ich erinnere mich daran, als ich jung war
Faith, hope, and love are some good things He gave us
Glaube, Hoffnung und Liebe sind einige gute Dinge, die er uns gegeben hat
And the greatest is love
Und die größte ist die Liebe
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
Wo warst du, als die Welt aufhörte sich zu drehen
That September day?
An jenem Septembertag?
Teachin' a class full of innocent children
Unterrichtetest du eine Klasse voller unschuldiger Kinder
Or drivin' down some cold interstate?
Oder fuhrst du auf irgendeiner kalten Autobahn?
Did you feel guilty 'cause you're a survivor?
Hast du dich schuldig gefühlt, weil du ein Überlebender bist?
In a crowded room did you feel alone?
Hast du dich in einem vollen Raum allein gefühlt?
Did you call up your mother and tell her you love her?
Hast du deine Mutter angerufen und ihr gesagt, dass du sie liebst?
Did you dust off that Bible at home?
Hast du die Bibel zu Hause abgestaubt?
Did you open your eyes and hope it never happened
Hast du deine Augen geöffnet und gehofft, dass es nie passiert ist
Close your eyes and not go to sleep?
Deine Augen geschlossen und nicht geschlafen?
Did you notice the sunset for the first time in ages
Hast du den Sonnenuntergang zum ersten Mal seit Ewigkeiten bemerkt
And speak to some stranger on the street?
Und mit einem Fremden auf der Straße gesprochen?
Did you lay down at night and think of tomorrow
Hast du dich nachts hingelegt und an morgen gedacht
Go out and buy you a gun?
Bist du rausgegangen und hast dir eine Waffe gekauft?
Did you turn off that violent old movie you're watchin'
Hast du diesen gewalttätigen alten Film, den du gerade siehst, ausgeschaltet
And turn on I Love Lucy reruns?
Und I Love Lucy Wiederholungen eingeschaltet?
Did you go to a church and hold hands with some strangers
Bist du in eine Kirche gegangen und hast Hände mit Fremden gehalten
Stand in line to give your own blood?
In der Schlange gestanden, um dein eigenes Blut zu geben?
Did you just stay home and cling tight to your family
Bist du einfach zu Hause geblieben und hast dich fest an deine Familie geklammert
Thank God you had somebody to love?
Gott sei Dank, dass du jemanden zum Lieben hattest?

Ma conosco Gesù e parlo con Dio
And I remember this from when I was young
E ricordo questo da quando ero giovane

Fede, speranza e amore sono alcune cose buone che ci ha dato
And the greatest is love
E il più grande è l'amore

Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
Dove eri quando il mondo ha smesso di girare
On that September day?
In quel giorno di settembre?
Where were you when the world stopped turnin'
Di mana kamu ketika dunia berhenti berputar
That September day?
Pada hari September itu?
Were you in the yard with your wife and children
Apakah kamu di halaman bersama istri dan anak-anakmu
Or workin' on some stage in L.A.?
Atau sedang bekerja di panggung di L.A.?
Did you stand there in shock at the sight of that black smoke
Apakah kamu berdiri terpaku melihat asap hitam itu
Risin' against that blue sky?
Menaik melawan langit biru itu?
Did you shout out in anger, in fear for your neighbor
Apakah kamu berteriak dalam kemarahan, dalam ketakutan untuk tetanggamu
Or did you just sit down and cry?
Atau kamu hanya duduk dan menangis?
Did you weep for the children, they lost their dear loved ones
Apakah kamu menangis untuk anak-anak, mereka kehilangan orang yang sangat mereka cintai
Pray for the ones who don't know?
Berdoa untuk mereka yang tidak tahu?

And the heroes who died just doin' what they do?
Dan para pahlawan yang mati hanya melakukan apa yang mereka lakukan?
Did you look up to heaven for some kind of answer
Apakah kamu menatap ke surga mencari jawaban
And look at yourself and what really matters?
