Teenage Dream
Magnus Ekelund & Stålet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Historien om en lovestruck yngling börjar här
Det var bara skolk, skate or die och pagefrissyr
Till hans kommun kom hon en dag och sålde kebab
Till alla fyllon nära tivolit på marknaden

Och dom var bara fjorton år

I buffalo, zavann och läppglans - teenage dream
Det blixtra till och klockor stannade, han blev så kär
Och hon valde honom där, sen gick det fort
Och samtidigt i ett annat land tog nån farväl

Till tonerna av Gloomy Sunday

Dom var oförstörda
Så hur skulle hon kunna se
He loves you

Hur skulle hon kunna se
He loves you

Hon hade sett mer än honom, en fotbollstjej
Med förortsattityd, så det gick lätt, ett sms
Det syntes inte uttanpå, men det hände nått
Efter den kvällen blev han aldrig mer den han en
gång var

Ett hjärta i kras

Dom var oförstörda
Så hur skulle hon kunna se
He loves you

Dom var gröna
Så hur skulle han kunna se
Det läker snart





Det läker snart
