Ludwig Bell Lyrics

Tänkte på dig
Tog 4an över bron, till andra sidan stan
Räknade tio saker som jag hatar med dig
Men kom bara till tre
Sen sluta jag med de
På natten kämpar jag mot tankar på dig och han
Förlorar varje gång
Dom säger 'gå till lilla baren'
Men orka det
Blir hemma, det blir bra
Tar dubbla imovane
Jag sparar sista dansen till dig baby
Har blivit många efterfester lately
När lampor tänds och alla har gått hem
Så kanske du o jag kan ses igen
Dom säger jag är kär i båda
Ere så?
Kan man älska lika mycket på två håll?
Vi har inte hörts på ganska länge nu
Jag undrar hur han mår å
Han håller på AIK, o Hammarby förlorar varje gång
Han såg så svart att jag blev sotig inuti
Jag e redan mörk så att det räcker
Det var nån som hade sett han ute häromdan
O jag tänker att vi e så bra på natten
Men på dan så vet jag inte vad vi e
Vi kan dansa tätt på natten
Men på dan så vet jag inte
O jag undrar om vi nånsin ses igen
Jag sparar sista dansen till dig baby
Har blivit många efterfester lately
När lampor tänds och alla har gått hem
Så kanske du o jag kan ses igen
In the lyrics of Ludwig Bell's song "Sista dansen," the singer reflects on a complex relationship filled with conflicting emotions and unresolved feelings. The song opens with the singer listening to London Beat on the radio and thinking about their significant other. Crossing the bridge to the other side of town, the singer begins a mental list of things they dislike about their partner, but can only come up with three before stopping. This act symbolizes the struggle to let go of negative thoughts and move forward.
The lyrics then delve into the singer's nighttime struggles with thoughts of their partner and another person, possibly a romantic rival. The mention of supporting the sports team Hammarby and always losing ties back to the feelings of defeat and disappointment in the relationship. Despite suggestions to go to a small bar for solace, the singer chooses to stay home and medicate with sleeping pills, showcasing a pattern of avoidance and self-medication to cope with emotional turmoil.
The chorus of the song reveals the singer holding onto the last dance for their partner, amidst a series of afterparties and late-night gatherings. The imagery of the lights turning on and everyone leaving hints at the vulnerability and desire for a private moment of connection with their loved one. The longing for a reunion suggests a glimmer of hope for reconciliation, despite the distance and silence that has grown between them.
As the song progresses, the singer questions the possibility of loving two people simultaneously and ponders the status of their current relationships. References to the other person supporting a rival sports team and appearing distant add to the sense of uncertainty and confusion in the singer's mind. The comparison of their partner's darkness affecting their own already dark nature paints a picture of mutual influence and interconnection, even in turmoil.
In the closing verses, the singer reflects on the dichotomy of their relationship, feeling strong and connected at night but unsure and distant during the day. The juxtaposition of dancing closely at night and feeling lost during the day speaks to the fleeting nature of intimacy and the struggle to maintain a sense of closeness in the light of day. The repeated refrain of saving the last dance for their partner underscores a sense of longing and a desire for a chance to reconnect and find clarity amid the confusion and emotional turmoil.

Sen slutade jag med det
Then I stopped with that

At night, I struggle with thoughts about you and him
Då blir jag Hammarby
Then I become Hammarby (a soccer team), losing every time
Förlorar varje gång
Lose every time

Jag undrar hur han mår å
I wonder how he's doing too
Han håller på AIK, o Hammarby förlorar varje gång
He supports AIK, and Hammarby loses every time
Han såg så svart att jag blev sotig inuti
He looked so bleak that I became sooty inside
Jag e redan mörk så att det räcker
I'm already dark enough as it is
Det var nån som hade sett han ute häromdan
Someone had seen him out the other day
O jag tänker att vi e så bra på natten
And I think that we're so good at night
Men på dan så vet jag inte vad vi e
But during the day, I don't know what we are
Vi kan dansa tätt på natten
We can dance closely at night
Men på dan så vet jag inte
But during the day, I don't know
O jag undrar om vi nånsin ses igen
And I wonder if we'll ever see each other again
