Paroles et traduction Sys Bjerre - Elefanten I Rummet

Elefanten I Rummet

Alle de diamanter
På alle de himmelhvælv
Alt det der forsvandt og
Dig der dansede med dig selv
Kan du huske at jeg engang
Troede du var en dreng
Kan du huske hvor små vi var
Hvor meget vi ville væk
Forstadsasfalt mod bare tæer
Du var modig og jeg var
Heldig
Alle de diamanter
På alle de himmelhvælv
Alt det der forsvandt og
Dig der dansede med dig selv
Alle de elefanter
I rummet og rundt omkring
Alt det der forsvandt og
Dem der lod som ingenting
Jeg er altid nervøs og du
Bliver hele tiden væk
Så jeg prøver at finde dig
En gang imellem
Hvor er du med de bare tæer
Er du modig mens jeg er
Heldig
Alle de diamanter
På alle de himmelhvælv
Alt det der forsvandt og
Dig der dansed med dig selv
Alle de elefanter
I rummet og rundt omkring
Alt det der forsvandt og
Dem der lod som ingenting
Hvad med dengang vi kun gik i genbrugstøj
Dengang du kun røg
Din mors smøger
Dengang jeg stjal nogens halskæde
Dengang du kom på den lukkede
Alle de diamanter
På alle de himmelhvælv
Alt det der forsvandt og
Dig der dansede med dig selv
Var det alle de elefanter
I rummet og rundt omkring
Alt det der forsvandt og
Dem der lod som ingenting
Hvad med dengang vi mest gik i ridetøj
Dengang vi løj og tog til fest
I Vestbadet
Dengang vi altid bare grinede og grinede og grinede

Elephants in the Room

All those diamonds
In all those firmaments
All that has vanished and
You who danced with yourself
Do you recall that I once
Thought you were a boy
Do you recall how small we were
How much we wanted to leave
Suburban asphalt against bare feet
You were brave and I was
Lucky
All those diamonds
In all those firmaments
All that has vanished and
You who danced with yourself
All those elephants
In and around the room
All that has vanished and
Those who pretended nothing was wrong
I’m always nervous and you
Always slip away
So I try to find you
Every now and then
Where are you with the bare feet
Are you brave while I’m
Lucky
All those diamonds
In all those firmaments
All that has vanished and
You who danced with yourself
All those elephants
In and around the room
All that has vanished and
Those who pretended nothing was wrong
What about when we only wore second-hand clothes
When you only smoked
Your mother's cigarettes
When I stole someone’s necklace
When you ended up in the psych ward
All those diamonds
In all those firmaments
All that has vanished and
You who danced with yourself
Were those all the elephants
In and around the room
All that has vanished and
Those who pretended nothing was wrong
What about when we mostly wore riding clothes
When we lied so we could party
At Vestbadet
When we always just laughed and laughed and laughed
