Utkast Till Ett Brev: Translations in English and Lyrics - Lars Winnerbäck

Now that you have said how you think
Was it not particularly interesting
I want to send a few lines from the tip
From the headquarters Greta Garbo
I hear a lobster disc down from the street
And herring squirrels up from the roofs
Sometimes I long for Europe
But I do not travel alone again


Have I said that I will move in the autumn?
Three hundred meters to the east
I will sit on the balcony when the evening comes
And ghostly write poems for the king
And I will open like a two-room hotel
Where you can come and go as you want
And can I then I throw away everything I have
And just save a landline


No one should see me go down me, I will come back
No boating boat bounces here
A wingbeat makes the air shake
No one should see me go down me, never see me so

People who stay in time
Leaves no dream just dreamed
We have nothing here to preach
And we are chased right into sleep
I will paint with gouache o ch acrylic
The painting I have always imagined
An answer to every conceivable question
Then I will hang it over your bed


I said that I have my trust
In Jesus and the Holy Spirit?
I read books that I should have read
And I mostly listen to Jimmie Rodgers
And I shit in answering when it rings
It's a very slow way to be alone
I retire and will be back soon
On the street where I learned to walk


No one should see me go down me, I will come back
Here no stray boat bounces
A wingbeat makes the air shake
No one should see me go down me, never see me so

And I'll find you again along the way
Before I turn forty
I make room on my new balcony
If you want to grow your Hungarian Hot Wax
And when I meet the loneliness on the stairs
Should I dress it in pants and shoes
I will call my friends again
And be sober almost every night


None will see me go down me, I will come back
Here no stray boat bounces
A wingbeat makes the air shake
No one should see me go down me, never see me so
