Kanske Jag Kommer Hem
Nina Ramsby Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Birds can fly, and fish can swim,
But on this planet where do I fit in?
I could be in trouble or just imagining;
Sometimes I feel like an alien.
I make them laugh; I make them stare,
But Mr. Jones said, "hey, young girl,
Don't you feel sorry for yourself?
The world's out there."
There's a moonchild for everyone.
Oh, little moonchild, you're not the only one!
There's a moonchild for everyone.
Oh, little moonchild, you're not the only one!
I looked at the world from another star;
That's when you discover who you really are.
So if you think you'd like the taste,
You know there's not much time to waste.
So take off into outer space;
I'll see you there!




There's a moonchild for everyone.
Oh, little moonchild, you're not the only one!

Overall Meaning

In this song, Nina Ramsby & Martin Hederos are exploring the feelings of disconnection and alienation that many people experience at some point in their lives. The opening lyrics talk about how birds and fish both have a clear place in the world, but the singer is unsure of their own place. The line "I make them laugh; I make them stare" suggests that the singer is talented or unique in some way, but also feels like an outsider because of it. However, the chorus makes it clear that the singer is not alone in feeling this way - there is a "moonchild" (a term that can refer to someone who is different or unconventional) for everyone, and the singer encourages listeners to embrace their differences and embrace their true selves.


The mention of looking at the world from another star is a nod to the idea of gaining a different perspective on one's life and experiences. It can be easy to get caught up in everyday routines and struggles, but by taking a step back and looking at things from a different angle, one might gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their place in the world. The chorus reinforces this idea by emphasizing that there are other people out there who feel the same way - seeking some kind of connection or belonging in a world that can often feel overwhelming or isolating.


Overall, "Kanske jag kommer hem" is a thoughtful and introspective song about the challenges of finding one's place in the world. The lyrics encourage listeners to embrace their differences and seek out the connections that can help them feel less alone.
