Henda i været - No. 4

Det skulle vært mørkt og passe kaldt

Jeg skulle vært alene

På vei ned til livet og dere

Det skulle vært som i en film med tomme gater uten folk i

Helt til jeg kom fram til døra jeg skulle inn i

Det var der og bare der man skulle være

Kjente og fjerne og kjære

Snille og slemme og kule og sære

Samma hvem du er, man er hjemme der

Der tiden står stille hvis du vil det

Der alt er bedre med litt promille

Der ingenting er ille

Det skulle vært for mange der, for høylydt, for mye klær

Jeg skulle lukket øynene, stoppet opp og blitt der

Jeg skulle løftet henda i været, vært fri

Sluppet alt jeg lever i

Jeg skulle stått med henda i været, vært fri

Og blitt stående for alltid

Det skulle vært vondt, skulle vært sant, skulle vært rent, det skulle vært bra

Det skulle ikke bli sent, det skulle bli en ny dag

Hodet skulle flyttet seg vekk fra meg

Og hjertet skulle banket i takt med alle andres

Det skulle ikke finnes tanker igjen

Jeg skulle vært nær alle andre der

Jeg skulle vært den som nekter å gå selv om lyset slås på

Sistemann ut, sistemann hjem, men førstemann ut igjen

Jeg skulle stått med henda i været, vært fri

Sluppet alt jeg lever i

Jeg skulle stått med henda i været, vært fri

Og blitt stående for alltid

Jeg skulle stått med henda i været, vært fri

Sluppet alt jeg lever i

Jeg skulle stått med henda i været, vært fri

Og blitt stående for alltid

It was supposed to be dark and quite cold

I should have been alone

On the way down to life and you

It should be like in a movie with empty streets with no people in them

Until I reached the door I was going to enter

It was there and only where one was supposed to be

Familiar and distant and dear

Kind and naughty and cool and quirky

No matter who you are, you are at home there

Where time stands still if you want it to

Where everything is better with a little alcohol

Where nothing is bad

There would have been too many people there, too loud, too many clothes

I was going to close my eyes, stop and stay there

I should have raised my hands in the air, been free

Let go of everything I live in

I should have stood with my hands in the air, been free

And remained forever

It was supposed to hurt, it was supposed to be true, it was supposed to be clean, it was supposed to be good

It wasn't going to be late, it was going to be a new day

The head should have moved away from me

And the heart should beat in time with everyone else's

There were to be no tanks left

I should have been close to everyone else there

I should be the one who refuses to go even if the light turns on

Baseman out, baseman home, but firstman out again

I should have stood with my hands in the air, been free

Let go of everything I live in

I should have stood with my hands in the air, been free

And remained forever

I should have stood with my hands in the air, been free

Let go of everything I live in

I should have stood with my hands in the air, been free

And remained forever
