Hey Ho - Hello Saferide

I knew it first thing I met you

There’s something special in us

Our lives will be different

We will stay young forever

We’ll know when we get there

And we looked for entrance doors

But somehow we never

And there was no

And when the streets wake up at nights, we’ll go there

Singing «Hey, Ho»

Hey ho, to the plans that slip away before we have them

Catching soup with forks without lamplight

And everyone else seemed to end up places

While we just sang «Hey, ho»

Hey ho, to the sailors that never passes by

To take us along to Brazilian sea ports

But there is something about him

Like he has never seen the world

Something so pure and decent

I have to destroy it

Or tap it on bottles

And drink it all night

And put a ring on it

To keep it forever

And in a suddent flash of light I’ll stand there

Singing «Hey, ho»

Hey ho, to the hope I carry with me in my hands

Fragile as newly-born birds or as egg shell

I have something, I know I do

I just need someone else to see it too

To pinpoint it and let me know

What to do

You, my friend, you are no help

You have just as little clue as I ever had

We ask each other for directions

It’s as entertaining as it is sad

No, I didn’t ask much of him

Only that he’d be all I need

That he’d fill the void in me

Make me stay young forever

And now we roam the streets like tourists

There is panic in our eyes

We pick up every paving stone

Look underneath them for anything

Your head is nowhere safe tonight

I have no idea what to say tonight

We’ll take off our boots and run out

Curse and scream at the moon tonight

In a dream I’m on my death bed

Being asked what it’s all about

And in my dream I know it:

Roaming the streets with your best friends

Singing «Hey, ho»

But when I woke up

I forgot it
