På perrongen - deLillos

Toget lirket seg av gårde

På perrongen der stod du

På ditt kinn der rant en tåre

Og jeg kunne ikke snu

Jeg skulle ta en liten reise

Til et ganske annet land

Nemlig natt-toget til Sverige

Og du var kvinne og jeg var mann

For alt var slik det skulle være

Da vi kysset som besatt

Vi kjente begge to begjæret

Da en fløyte blåste hardt

Og da jeg så to blanke øyne

Og jeg sa jeg elsket deg

Var det som en deilig sprøyte

Dusjet godhet over meg

Jeg ropte til deg at du måtte

Bare ta en drosje hjem

Nå må du huske på å vokte

Deg mot innpåslitne menn

Toget kjørte ut av Oslo

Retning landet der i øst

Jeg kan’ke si det var no' moro

Men jeg trengte ingen trøst

For alt var slik det skulle være

Da vi kysset som besatt

Vi kjente begge to begjæret

Da en fløyte blåste hardt

Og da jeg så to blanke øyne

Og jeg sa jeg elsket deg

Var det som en deilig sprøyte

Dusjet godhet over meg

The train skidded off

On the platform there you stood

A tear ran down your cheek

And I could not turn around

I was going to take a little trip

To a quite different country

Namely the night train to Sweden

And you were a woman and I was a man

For everything was as it should be

Then we kissed like obsessed

We both felt the desire

Then a whistle blew hard

And when I saw two shining eyes

And I said I loved you

It was like a delicious syringe

Showered goodness over me

I shouted at you that you had to

Just take a cab home

Now you have to remember to guard

You against worn-out men

The train left Oslo

Direction landed there in the east

I can not say it was fun

But I needed no consolation

For everything was as it should be

Then we kissed like obsessed

We both felt the desire

Then a whistle blew hard

And when I saw two shining eyes

And I said I loved you

It was like a delicious syringe

Showered goodness over me
