Carola Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Men mamma, jag vill träffa honom
Han är inte bra för dig
Men förstår du inte? Jag tycker ju om honom
Mamma, hon säger stanna hemma ikväll
Du var ju faktiskt ute igår
Pappa, han säger jämt att mamma har rätt
Jag sitter på mitt rum och drömmer mig bort
När Tommy visslar utanför
Han säger: "Hej, kom ut till mig"
"Fast du är tjej så är du helt okej"
Tommy tycker om mig och jag vet att det är sant
Det finns ingen annan som får mig känna likadant
Tommy tycker om mig och fast han är nonchalant
Är han den jag gillar, och han känner likadant, det är sant
I plugget så pratar de om Tommy varje rast
Varenda en vill vara hans tjej
Men det är någonting som ingen vet i min klass
Att Tommy gett sitt foto till mig
Jag sitter vid min bänk och drömmer mig bort
När Tommy visslar utanför
Han säger: "Hej, kom ut till mig"
"Fast du är tjej så är du helt okej"
Tommy tycker om mig och jag vet att det är sant
Det finns ingen annan som får mig känna likadant
Tommy tycker om mig och fast han är nonchalant
Är han den jag gillar, och han känner likadant, det är sant
Allt jag hört om kärlek var en hemlighet
Jag är inte vuxen men jag vet
Tommy tycker om mig och jag vet att det är sant
Det finns ingen annan som får mig känna likadant
Tommy tycker om mig och fast han är nonchalant
Är han den jag gillar, och han känner likadant
Tommy tycker om mig och jag vet att det är sant
Det finns ingen annan som får mig känna likadant
Tommy tycker om mig och jag vet att det är sant
Det finns ingen annan
