Jonathan
Morten Remar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Han lever for sig selv
Dagen går med tunge skridt
Mod dybet i hans sjæl
Og pigen skrev det sidste brev
Det var midt i maj
Sommeren blev så kold i år
Og mågerne skreg
Jonathan bor til leje
På værelse hos Fru Klem
Der altid har besg om natten
Når han kommer hjem
Og når han lægger sig i sengen
Stille falder hen, ja
Så ligger han og drømmer om
At livet er hans ven
Jonathan giv aldrig op
Glem de nederlag
For kærligheden finder vej
Det sker for dig en dag
Jonathan giv aldrig op
Det sker jo nok engang
At verden ser din ensomhed
Og sommeren bli′r lang
Jonathan har ingen far
Og mor hun smed ham ud
I skolen var der ingen hjælp
Nu lever han som bud
Og Jonathan har ingen venner
Lever for sig selv
Dagen går med tunge skridt
Mod dybet i hans sjæl
Jonathan giv aldrig op
Glem de nederlag
For kærligheden finder vej
Det sker for dig en dag
Jonathan giv aldrig op
Det sker jo nok engang
At verden ser din ensomhed
Og sommeren bli'r lang
Jonathan giv aldrig op
Glem de nederlag
For kærligheden finder vej
Det sker for dig en dag
Jonathan giv aldrig op
Det sker jo nok engang
At verden ser din ensomhed
Og sommeren bli′r lang
Jonathan giv aldrig op
Glem de nederlag
For kærligheden finder vej
Det sker for dig en dag
Jonathan giv aldrig op
Det sker jo nok engang
At verden ser din ensomhed
Og sommeren bli'r lang

The lyrics of Morten Remar's song "Jonathan" tell the story of a lonely and isolated young man named Jonathan, who lives alone in Mrs. Klem's rooming house. His life seems uneventful and heavy-hearted, and he has no friends or family to turn to. The only person who he appears to have a kind of relationship with is a girl who wrote him a letter in May, but even this connection is fading. Jonathan's lonely moments often make him think of life as his friend, dreaming of happiness and fulfillment.
The chorus of the song is a reminder to Jonathan that he should never give up on life no matter how many setbacks he encounters. Remar talks about the power of love to transform lives and reminds us that sooner or later, the world will take notice of Jonathan's loneliness and bring the long summer to an end.
Overall, the song makes a poignant statement about loneliness and the importance of maintaining hope in the face of adversity. It is an emotional and moving depiction of the human condition and a reminder to us all that no one should be left without friendship and love.

Jonathan har ingen venner
Jonathan is friendless and alone
Han lever for sig selv
He lives by himself and for himself
Dagen går med tunge skridt
His days drag on slowly
Mod dybet i hans sjæl
Towards the depths of his soul
Og pigen skrev det sidste brev
And the girl wrote the final letter
Det var midt i maj
It was in the middle of May
Sommeren blev så kold i år
Summer turned out so cold this year

Jonathan bor til leje
Jonathan rents a room
På værelse hos Fru Klem
In a room at Mrs. Klem's house
Der altid har besg om natten
Where there's always visitors at night
Når han kommer hjem
When he comes home
Og når han lægger sig i sengen
And when he lies down in bed
Stille falder hen, ja
Quietly falls asleep, yes
Så ligger han og drømmer om
Then he lies there and dreams about
At livet er hans ven
That life is his friend

Og mor hun smed ham ud

Nu lever han som bud
Now he makes his living as a messenger

Det sker jo nok engang
It will happen again
At verden ser din ensomhed
That the world sees your loneliness
Og sommeren bli′r lang
And summer becomes long
