Det Er Mig Der Står Herude Og Banker På
Thomas Helmig Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
n�r vi er i byen sammen
Vi g�r n�sten altid hjem hver for sig
Vi bliver en smule fulde
og s� s�rer vi hinanden
og sidst der gik det ud over dig
CHORUS start
Det er mig der st�r herude og banker p�
og beder dig om at pr've at forst�
jeg kyssede hende kun p� hendes kind
sig at det er okay og luk mig ind
sig det� okay og luk mig ind
jeg kyssede hende kun p� hendes kind
et kys p� kinden
det er hvad der sker
jeg lover at der ikke skete mere
CHORUS end
Det er s� let at komme galt afsted
det er s� let at dumme sig
et glas for meget kan �del�gge alt
og sidst der gik det ud over dig
Det er altid det samme der sker
de tomme flasker bliver flere og flere
og s� glemmer jeg alt om gode manerer

Det g�r n�sten altid galt
Things almost always go wrong
n�r vi er i byen sammen
when we're out in town together
Vi g�r n�sten altid hjem hver for sig
We almost always go home separately
Vi bliver en smule fulde
We get a little drunk
og s� s�rer vi hinanden
And then we hurt each other
og sidst der gik det ud over dig
And last time, it was you who got hurt
Det er mig der st�r herude og banker p�
It's me standing out here knocking
og beder dig om at pr've at forst�
Asking you to try and understand
jeg kyssede hende kun p� hendes kind
I only kissed her on the cheek
sig at det er okay og luk mig ind
Say it's okay and let me in
sig det� okay og luk mig ind
Say it's okay and let me in
jeg kyssede hende kun p� hendes kind
I only kissed her on the cheek
et kys p� kinden
Just a kiss on the cheek
det er hvad der sker
That's what happened
jeg lover at der ikke skete mere
I promise nothing else happened
Det er s� let at komme galt afsted
It's so easy to mess up
det er s� let at dumme sig
It's so easy to be stupid
et glas for meget kan �del�gge alt
One too many drinks can ruin everything
og sidst der gik det ud over dig
And last time, it was you who suffered
Det er altid det samme der sker
It's always the same thing that happens
de tomme flasker bliver flere og flere
The empty bottles pile up
og s� glemmer jeg alt om gode manerer
And then I forget all about good manners

It's almost always wrong
When we are in town together
We almost always go home separately
We are getting a bit full
And then we hurt each other
And at last it went beyond you
CHORUS start
It's me standing here and knocking on
And asks you to try to understand
I only kissed her on her cheek
Say it's okay and shut me in
Say it 'okay and shut me in
I only kissed her on her cheek
a kiss on the cheek
that's what happens
I promise that no more happened
CHORUS end
It's so easy to go wrong
It's so easy to stumble
A glass too much can destroy everything
And at last it went beyond you
It is always the same thing that happens
The empty bottles are becoming more and more
And then I forget about good manners
@MrLarle
It almost always goes wrong
When we are out together
We almost always go home seperately
We get a bit drunk
And hurt eachother
Last time you suffered
Chorus
It is me standing outside knocking on the door
Asking you to understand
i only kissed on the cheek
Say it is okay and let me in
say it is okay and let me in
I only kissed her on the cheek
A kiss on the cheek is what happens
I promise nothing else happened
It is so easy to get intro to trouble
It is so easy to make a fool of onself
One glass too many can destroy everything
And the last time you were suffering
The same thing always happens
The empty bottles gets more and more
And then i forget everything about good manners

Great memories. I was a 19 year old American living in Denmark when this was popular on the radio.
@KimPoulPetersen
En af Helmigs bedste. Dejlig ungdomssang fra de år hvor man var så ung og følsom. Den indrammer smukt, ungdomsårenes forvirrede og følsomme univers. Tak for den hr Helmig.
@kubel83
Kim Poul Petersen helt enig. Nu er vi bare unge og smukke hehe😉

Jette Harbo Meget intelligent kommentar fra en Pædagog/assistent... Er det noget du har lært at sige fra en af dine kurser, for at udvikle faglige kompentencer?.... Dygtig, såååååååå dygtig😱Men tror du bør tage et kursus mere, for at udvikle dit sprog og mentalitet... Du har jo med børn at gøre trods alt... 😑

@christianmohrchristensen7860
Basically it's a song about a guy who is regretting kissing a girl while out drinking and now he is standing outside his girlfriends door pleading her to let him in and trying to get her to understand that it was only a kiss and nothing else happened.A true Danish classic!
