Verse 1
I'm leaning on the bar and we're catching up
Just the way I love doing with you
Some beers and football and before I head off
I'll quickly share one more thing with you
'Cause after all these years you're still here
Here in the pub, it surprises me
Chorus 1
Kids have come and women have gone
But whatever happened, you stood next to me
Buckets of tears, joy and sorrow
We laughed and sometimes we didn't
We fought and shared love
I never got bored with you
I raise my glass to our friendship
Because you're here and always there for me
Buckets of tears and loads, so much love shared
Verse 2
Shoulder to shoulder, we were still young
That year we became champions
Today we're older but if I could
I'd do it all again with you
'Cause Saturday night lasts forever
Us in the pub, it surprises me
Chorus 2
Kids have come and women have gone
But whatever happened, you stood next to me
Buckets of tears, joy and sorrow
We laughed and sometimes we didn't
We fought and shared love
I never got bored with you
I raise my glass to our friendship
Because you're here and always there for me
Buckets of tears and loads, so much love shared
Chorus 3
I raise my glass to our friendship
Because you're here and always there for me
Buckets of tears and, you know
I never got bored with you
Chorus 3
Buckets of tears and loads, so much love shared

SONG MEANING

Grab a seat at the bar and raise your glass — this song is a heartfelt toast to lifelong friendship!

In “Tranen Met Tuiten” (which means “Buckets of Tears”), Belgian singer Niels Destadsbader looks back on years spent shoulder to shoulder with his best mate in their favorite café. From late-night chats about football to the ups and downs of love, marriage, and kids, the two friends have shared it all: “tears by the bucket, laughter, fights, and a whole lot of love.” No matter what life threw at them, they always found their way back to the same barstool, proving that true friendship grows stronger with every clink of a beer glass.

With catchy melodies and warm storytelling, the song celebrates the little rituals that turn into lifelong memories. It reminds us that while people may come and go, a loyal friend is forever — and there is always time for one more drink, one more story, and one more toast to the bond that never breaks.
