Rendez-vous - deLillos

I en høstlig gate trist og hverdags grå

Jeg vandrer ensom nå med søte minner

Husker strøket her da jeg var tretten år

Og skulle møte Britt den yndigste blant kvinner

Mitt første rendezvous her omkring

Var som duft av hegg og syrin

Vi vandret arm i arm i Tøyenhagen

Og alt var snilt

Og det kilte rart i magen

Og når jeg husker henne især

Så er det fordi vi møttes jo her

Her omkring rundt gamle Schweigaards gate

Nederst der ved Parkvesenets trær

Og jeg kan huske alle hennes ømme ord

Og hennes ekle bror de kyss hun ga meg

Men en dag så sa hun bare takk for seg

Og vandret freidig bort og jeg ble faktisk lei meg

Mitt siste rendezvous her omkring

Var som smak av bitter sur vin

Jeg ble helt alene i Tøyenhagen

Og alt var mørkt

Og det gjorde vondt i maven

Og når jeg husker henne især

Så er det fordi vi skiltes jo her

Her omkring rundt gamle Schweigaards gate

Nederst der ved Parkvesenets trær

In an autumnal street sad and everyday gray

I walk alone now with sweet memories

Remember the neighborhood here when I was thirteen years old

And should meet Britt the cutest among women

My first rendezvous around here

Was like the scent of hawthorn and lilac

We walked arm in arm in Tøyenhagen

And everything was kind

And it tickled nice in the stomach

And when I remember her especially

Then it's because we met here

Here around the old Schweigaards gate

At the bottom there by the Park Service's trees

And I can remember all her tender words

And her nasty brother the kisses she gave me

But one day she just said thank you

And walked away freely and I was actually sorry

My last rendezvous around here

Be like the taste of bitter sour wine

I was completely alone in Tøyenhagen

And everything was dark

And it hurt in the stomach

And when I remember her especially

Then it's because we parted here

Here around the old Schweigaards gate

At the bottom there by the Park Service's trees
