I never cared for red lights
I never cared for your hand in mine
But let me keep you for a while

You are never like I wish you’d be 
You’re always a step ahead of me
Let me keep up for a while

I don’t know why you try to hold me close just to say goodbye
If snowflakes fall at least I’ll have the cold to follow me home
Tonight

I never cared for streetlights 
I never cared for your footprints next to mine
Let me keep you for a while

Nothing turns out like I think it will 
I’m not leaving and you’re just standing still 
Let us keep on for a while

I don’t know why you try to hold me close just to say goodbye
If snowflakes fall at least I’ll have a reason to stay behind your door
sometimes

Sometimes you light the red lights
and I want to let you in
Sometimes you let the guard down
and your words can heal my skin 

I want to keep you for a while

A while

I've named you "Wednesday morning"
it was a song about me and you
I didn't sleep at all that night
I was co-existing with you

You're two hours by the piano
You're my favorite Sunday afternoon
You're not beautiful as we know it
But what we know is beautiful in you

When Friday came you lit the candle in my hand
Is Christmas almost near?
Then I won't wish for any presents
Just as long as you're present here with me

I always wear your scarf on Mondays
'cause it's a chance to start again
I keep thinking that I'm gonna change
But my days are dying and I am the same

A Tuesday evening I can't forget
I wish I was sparkling, silver, blue and red
It's too easy to give up on you
When I see you loving her instead

If Friday comes we'll light the candles in the snow
'cause Christmas almost here
And I won't wish for any presents
Just as long as you're present here with me

I left you waiting on a Thursday
I regret it every night
My Saturdays are lonely now
At least the Christmas tree is bright

Weak in December

There's a giant in the woods and he keeps screaming at the moon
Don't fade away
If I could enlighten all the trees he'd be silent in the green
But it's too late

Cause there's a witch who follows me, she's haunting my dreams

There are people in the park drinking whisky in the dark
Let's fade away
If I could enlighten all her flaws she'd be silent behind bars
But it's too late

She's bewitched my home, my life, my reality

When I fall asleep tonight
Would you keep me company?
She's afraid of the bright
eyes that you wear 
when you stare at me
But she, she, she

There was a boy who met a girl and he kept screaming at the world
"Let us be"
But the witch would point and stare and cast a spell that would tear
them appart

Let us be, don't make us fight, she's taking me down

The judge says it's her fault and locked her looks in a vault
Let's think straight
We could keep her in a box or smash her head with a rock
and so we did

And there's no witch here anymore but stay here just in case she would
return to kill my sleep again so stay here just in case she would
return to take my dreams again so stay here just in case she would
return to kill my sleep again, return to bring me down again

When I fall asleep tonight
I don't need company
But she might stay away this time
If you let her see
how you watch me sleep
So stay here with me

Wicked Witch

I have stopped looking around
Cause I don’t wanna see
How you’re reaching for everyone
Everyone but me

I shut your image out
And always turn around
I still see your picture everywhere
You win me over every time

You’re too far up in the sky
And your appearance hurts my eyes

I’ve always been a runner
And I run from everything
I should have known that you're much faster
And i never meant to let you in

I shut your answers out
And never make a sound
You just keep talking to me anyway
You win me over every time

You are locked up in your jokes
Your appearance makes me choke
        
I still can't stop missing you
And I curse your witty rhymes
I just can’t get away from you
You win me over every time
                 
Every time I close my eyes I see your smile          
I close my eyes and hear your rhymes        
I close my eyes to reach your sky              
I close my eyes you win me over every time

Everytime

Det blev som du sa
När det ljusnar 
har jag inget kvar

Så sov för mig
När jag går
Går du åt
Jag lämnar dig

Jag kommer tillbaks
För att visa
Allt du inte har

Så le för mig
När du ger
Ger jag mig av
Jag lämnar dig
