Sången han sjöng var min egen
The song he sang was mine
Berättade allt om min tid
It told everything about my time
Sången han sjöng var min egen
The song he sang was mine
Orden var tagna ur mitt liv
The words were taken from my life
Rytmen var mönster på min hud
The rhythm was patterns in my skin
Orden tar tagna ur mitt liv
The words were taken from my life
En sal med hundra mänskor
A hall filled with a hundred people
Vid pianot satt en man
There was a man sitting by the piano
Jag gick igenom salen
I walked through the hall
Och lyssna' litegrann
And listened to some of it
Då plötsligt fanns där sången
Then suddenly the song was there
Min omgivning försvann
Everybody around disappeared
Sången han sjöng var min egen
The song he sang was mine
Berättade allt om min tid
It told everything about my time
Sången han sjöng var min egen
The song he sang was mine
Orden var tagna ur mitt liv
The words were taken from my life
Rytmen var mönster på min hud
The rhythm was patterns in my skin
Orden tar tagna ur mitt liv
The words were taken from my life
Jag stod där som förstenad
I stood there petrified
Hans text var mina ord
His lyrics were my words
Han läste innantill
He read them by heart
Han grävde i min jord
He dug in my soil
Jag bad Snälla, sluta
I asked him to stop
Men han sjöng på och log
But he just kept on singing with a smile
Sången han sjöng var min egen
The song he sang was mine
Berättade allt om min tid
It told everything about my time
Sången han sjöng var min egen
The song he sang was mine
Orden var tagna ur mitt liv
The words were taken from my life
Rytmen var mönster på min hud
The rhythm was patterns in my skin
Orden tar tagna ur mitt liv
The words were taken from my life
Sången han sjöng var min egen
The song he sang was mine
Berättade allt om min tid
It told everything about my time
Sången han sjöng var min egen
The song he sang was mine
Orden var tagna ur mitt liv
The words were taken from my life
Rytmen var mönster på min hud
The rhythm was patterns in my skin
Orden tar tagna ur mitt liv
The words were taken from my life
