Shotgun
Silvana Imam Lyrics

Right. I'm just out there, thinking that, well I know I'm sposed to be on and all but you know... I might have the thirds luck out in this rain. I was thinking bout you.
I'm out here in the rain, knowing I should be out here, but sometimes luck is not on my side. My thoughts are with you.

gravel the road
The road is rough and bumpy.

rolling too far ey
We've gone too far and it feels like it's getting out of control.

get me out of here chartey
I need to get out of here, fast.

get me out of here chartey
Again, I need to get out of here, fast.

gravel the road
The rough road continues.

rolling too far ey
We are still out of control and it's overwhelming.

get me out of here chartey
Once more, I need to get out of this situation immediately.

Hon drar ner volymen
She turns down the volume.

Drar mig tillbaka bak i bilen
I retreat to the back of the car.

Drar ner tiden och viskar mina önskelåtar inte låter som hennes
I turn back time and whisper my wishful songs, they don't sound like hers.

Så jag låter henne byta låtar och nu är hon inne på sin femte
So I let her change the songs, she's now on her fifth one.

Vinden rusar förbi och hennes hästsvans märks i ljuset
The wind rushes past and her ponytail stands out in the light.

av blickarna som vänds snabbt
The glances that turn quickly.

Hon tänds snabbt, av och på
She turns on and off quickly.

Så jag drar ner mina glasögon och läser henne med en lasernål
So I put on my glasses and scrutinize her with a laser-like focus.

this is the last, this is the last time, the last time I'm riding shotgun with you
This is the final time I'll be riding shotgun with you.

Cola i solen en sommar på speed
Drinking cola in the sun, one summer on speed.

Sommaren gick fort förbi
Summer went by quickly.

Vissa saker långsamt rättvist
Some things are slow, but fair.

Första natten, händerna på täcket, handsfree
First night, hands on the cover, handsfree.

och jag pratar om inte något särskild telefon
And I'm not talking about anything in particular on the phone.

Hon var ett hårsmån ifrån top tre listan underifrån men hon är svartlistad
She was almost on the top three list, but now she's blacklisted.

fast hennes ögon glittrar mot mig tar vinet tar mig över bordet
But her eyes shine towards me, wine takes me over the edge.

men vi tar det långsamt, du är redan långt fram framsätet, bältet av shotgun (softa) här i baksätet, inga krav utan krav (softa)
But we take it slow, you are already ahead in the front seat, seatbelt of the shotgun (quiet) here in the backseat, no demands without demands (quiet).

avlägset
Distant.

Hon vet att jag läser in för mycket
She knows that I read too much into things.

Hon läser av, klär av mig med blicken
She reads me, undresses me with her eyes.

Tar av mitt guldsmycke och slänger det på bordet och hon är fullt nykter
She takes off my gold necklace and throws it on the table, and she is fully sober.

och jag är uppe i ruset, uppe hela natten, hundra ansikten på natthimlen
And I'm high on the rush, up all night, a hundred faces in the night sky.

Det här är för mycket
This is too much.

för vet vi inte vilken låt som är bra så låter vi det va
Because we don't know which song is good, we let it be.

with you
With you.

this is the last time
This is the last time.

I'm riding shotgun with you
I'm riding shotgun with you.

with you
With you.

shotgun with you
Shotgun with you.
