Lyrics and translation Bjørn Eidsvåg - Og Vips (Remastered)

Og Vips (Remastered)

Og vips – så va du aleina
Det e rart kor fort ting skjer
Det bildet blei i blant tegna
Men ikkje nå - ikkje her
Du syns du hadde det bra du
Itte så lang tid
Du va elska og glad du
Og vips – va det forbi

Det hadde saktens vært gråver
I blant ein reale storm
Men valget ditt blei å stå der
Og sakte fant ein ein form
To ongar va blide, to sterke små
Så trygge og frie, bare du og dei nå

Alt aent går som normalt
Folk smile' og ler
Ditt liv e snudd totalt
Det e det ingen som ser

Møkje va blitt forsaka
Møkje mer va fått
Nå va du blitt vraka
Den andre va bare gått
Ein stor investering
I ein liten bedrift
Knust av eksperimentering
Ikkje tillatt som gift

And Presto (Remastered)

And presto – then you were alone
It's strange how quickly things happen
That picture got drawn sometimes
But not now - not here
You thought you had it good
Not so long ago
You were loved and happy
And presto – it was over

There had certainly been storms
Sometimes a real tempest
But you chose to stand there
And slowly you found a way
Two children were happy, two strong little ones
So safe and free, just you and them now

Everything else goes on as usual
People smile and laugh
Your life has turned upside down
No one notices

Much had been sacrificed
Much more had been gained
Now you had been dumped
The other one had just left
A big investment
In a small business
Crashed by experimentation
Not allowed as a poison
