you're so far away, you're so far away, you're so far away
I wish I was far away too

good times - where are you now?
darling - where are you now?

new york or alingsås, I'll go wherever, wherever, wherever, with you
new bore or alings pause, I don't care as long as it's with you

you know the streets of Gothenbourg
resemble the streets of Copenhagen
and the lakes of cold cold Helsinki
I'll go there without blinki

good times - where are you now?
darling - where are you now?

new york or alingsås, I'll go wherever, wherever, wherever, with you
new bore or alings pause, I don't care as long as it's with you

I'll go wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever




I'll go wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever
I'll go wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever, wherever
