Paroles et traduction Kari Bremnes - Tog vi Ikkje Tok

Tog vi Ikkje Tok

Vi skulle kanskje samle oss
Vi som alle tog e gådd ifra
Samle oss et sted med gode stola
Og servering og musikk
Det kunne gjerne vært en gammel togstasjon
Som ennu hadde tog som kom og gikk

Så kunne vi ha snakka om å
Gå på ett av dem
For å holde muligheten åpen
Ha den inni hodet, for det ska jo være viktig
Med en mulighet i alle fall ett sted
Og hodet e ganske anvendelig sånn

Det kunne blitt utrulig fint
Det kunne blitt ei bok
Om tog vi ikkje tok

Så kunne vi fortalt kverandre mye
Vi som alle tog e gått ifra
Tankan som vi hadde om å komme dit
Vi altså ikkje gjor
Og koffer det va dit vi ville reise
Og ka som gjor at ingen av oss fo′r

Det kunne blitt utrulig fint
Det kunne blitt ei bok
Om tog vi ikkje tok

Det kunne blitt utrulig fint
Det kunne blitt ei bok
Om tog vi ikkje tok

Train We Didn't Take

We could maybe gather
Those of us who all trains have forsaken
Gather in a place with cozy chairs
And food and music there
It could likely be an old train station
That still has a train that comes and goes

Then we could have talked about
Getting to one of them
To keep the possibility open
Have it in mind, because it's important to have
A possibility somewhere
And the mind is quite useful that way

It could have been incredibly beautiful
It could have been a book
About trains we didn't take

Then we could have told each other a lot
Those of us who all trains have forsaken
The thoughts we had about getting there
That we never did
And why it was there we wanted to go
And what made none of us go

It could have been incredibly beautiful
It could have been a book
About trains we didn't take

It could have been incredibly beautiful
It could have been a book
About trains we didn't take
