Når du sover
Marion Raven Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
demper jeg lyset som svever over,
dine skuldre,
ditt gyllende hår,
og hete skinn.
Først når du sover er du min,
dagene flyr og gjør som de vil,
Du er fri,
når du sover.
Du er fri,
når du sover.
Når du sover,
kan jeg ikke jage dine spøkelser,
jeg ser du skjelver,
jeg du ser smiler,
du er en hemmelighet du ikke vet om,
når du sover,
du er fri,
når du sover.
Uehehe.(uehehe.)Uehehe.(uehehe.)Uehehe.(uehehe.)Uehehe.
Jeg grubler og tenker i sakte film,
å ikke få sove er en ensom ting,
når du sover (når du sover)
Når du sover er du fri,
når du sover,
er du fri,
når du sover,
du er fri,
når du sover (når du sover)
du er fri,
når du sover...

Når du sover
When you are asleep
demper jeg lyset som svever over,
I dim the light that hovers over,
dine skuldre,
Your shoulders,
ditt gyllende hår,
Your golden hair,
og hete skinn.
And hot skin.
Først når du sover er du min,
Only when you are asleep are you mine,
dagene flyr og gjør som de vil,
The days fly by and do as they please,
jeg bøyer meg over og snuser deg inn.
I lean over and sniff you in.
