Jolly Roger

(Hr pianot frn fnstret dr Nn spelar fr en sol som aldrig vill g ner bakom brinnande tak Det r tomt i den hr stan alla har kt nnstans Lmnat oss ensamma hr Det r bara du och jag Lgg det dr t sidan och se p mej nu
Du var en sknhet nr vi trffades men du r nnu vackrare nu Drrarna slog hr och vggarna sjng det var som ett hem ibland - ibland som ett stkigt hotell Dom har checkat ut nu - gsterna som skrek Dom enda som skriker hr nu r svalorna denna frsommarkvll S vad gr vi nu - du och jag med varann? Ska vi stanna hr eller bryta upp ge oss av till ett annat land Och hissa Jolly Roger stta segel och g tvrs mot vinden och blsa vra sjlar rena Se vad som skingrats vad som glidit isr
Se vad som kan terfrenas Eller skiljer vi oss nu Gr ifrn varann Jag med en annan kvinna Du med en ny man Blir dom vi aldrig varit dom vi lngtat att bli Dom vi gmt lngst drinne i Ibland kan jag knna att vi skilt oss allihop som om vi lmnat varann och glmt bort dom vi var det r kanske oundvikligt - kanske bara tidens gng varje vandring har sitt ml och hr r vi nu idag Vi behvde varann s lnge vi behvde varann Nu r var och en sin egen bde kvinna och man Och lgtrycket vandrar in ver detta gamla land som dom alltid har gjort, men ikvll str taken i brand av en sol som glder det r en ynnest en nd att ntligen f vrmen hit dr kylan r s hrd Som om den har satt sig i mrgen i vra sjlar dessa dar Vi hade nnting ihop en gng finns nnting av det kvar Kan vi hissa Jolly Roger stta (segel och g tvrs mot vinden och blsa vra sjlar rena Se vad som skingrats vad som glidit isr Se vad som kan terfrenas Eller skiljer vi oss nu Gr ifrn varann Kper oss fria frn alla gamla band Blir

Jolly Roger

(The piano next to the window there / I play for a sun that will never ever sink behind burning roofs / It is empty in this town / everybody has gone away somewhere / Left us here all alone / It's just you and me / Put that aside and look at me now
You were a beauty when we met / but you're even more beautiful now / The doors slammed and the walls sung / it was like a home sometimes - sometimes like a lousy hotel / They have checked out now - the guests who screamed / The only ones who scream here now are the swallows this early summer evening / So what do we do now - you and I with each other? / Shall we stay here or break up / leave to another country / And hoist Jolly Roger / set the sails and go right across the wind and cleanse our souls / See what has been scattered, what has come undone
See what can be reconnected / Or do we separate now / Leave from each other / Me with another woman / You with a new man / Become the ones we have never been / the ones we have been longing to become / The ones we have hidden deepest within / Sometimes I can feel / that we have all separated / as if we left each other and forgotten who we were / it is perhaps inevitable - perhaps just the passage of time / every journey has its destination and here we are today. We needed each other as long as we needed each other / Now everyone is their own master / both woman and man / And the low-pressure moves in over this old country / as it always has, but tonight the roofs are on fire / of a sun that shines as if it were the point / it is a favour, a necessity / to finally get the warmth here / where the cold is so hard / As if it has settled in the morning / in our souls these days / We had something together once / is there anything left of that / Can we hoist Jolly Roger / set (the sails and go right across the wind and cleanse our souls / See what has been scattered, what has come undone / See what can be reconnected / Or do we separate now / Leave from each other / Buy ourselves free from all old ties / Become
