What are you gonna do on Christmas Eve
Please don't spend it with your family
I know you love your mommy
But she's more like a mummy

She's so empty,
She's so empty
So run away with me

She's so empty
She's so empty
So run away with me

Yeah I know it's been a bad year
And I can trace every tear
Back to your little life
But I can see a future for you and I

Because we're not empty
We're not empty
So run away with me

We're not empty
We're not empty
So run away with me now baby


. . .



I'm on my way to the USA, so give me your address
And I will send you the only white dove from New York City,
And call out your zip code on the Grand Canyon.
I know you don’t really read my letters,
The very thought of not knowing the exact location
Of the room where we shared our last kiss will eventually kill me,
‘Cause it wasn’t just any kiss.
It wasn't like a first kiss or a second kiss or a millionth kiss...
But it was a perfect kiss.
It was a kiss we had been working on forever.

You don’t know how much you mean to me

I guess I should be ashamed,
I’ve already caused so much trouble...
I’d something going on with another girl
and then with another after that.
But I just couldn’t get you out of my head,
so I grew tired of them, you know,
I had a plan that involved you,
but maybe that’s not a very good idea,
'Cause I know you a have a guy now
and I know that you are happy living you life the way you do,
and I’m not here to ask you to change your life...
I guess I just wanna let you know how I feel about you.
I just wanna go on with my life, you know...

You don’t know how much you mean to me

I’m in Bloomington tonight, and...
I miss you.
It feels like all of the accomplishes means nothing,
Feels like my whole existence and history
Is being erased.
I opened up a sealed envelope
And it contains an eternity of memories that I never experienced,
So I can’t explain this in one sentence and I just keep going on...
You know, I had a plan that involved getting on with my life,
But maybe that’s not a very good idea.
I’m alone now.
I would be so afraid if someone put their arms around me...

You don't know how much you mean to me

Me On the Beach

[No lyrics]

. . .



Det är höst i Göteborg
jag passerar Kortedala torg
regnet faller hårt över natten
över alla hemlösa katter

Låt mig få sova en stund
bara en liten liten blund
för hon sa att allting va lönlöst
men jag tyckte hon sa lönnlöv

Så vi pratade i timmar
dina tårar i mina lakan
du sa att du tyckte du va ful
jag fattade ingenting

För det där är skitsnack
och det vet du
du är det vackraste jag har sett ju

Jag har förlorat mig själv i dig
förlorar jag dig så förlorar jag mig
Hon sa att allt va lönlöst
men jag tyckte hon sa lönnlöv

När hon sa att allt va över
Såg jag henne gå där bland löven
Det enda minne jag behöver

Hon sa att allt var lönlöst
När hon reste sig för att gå
Gick mitt hjärta aldrig sönder

Jag kommer aldrig förstå
Jag kommer aldrig förstå
Jag kommer aldrig förstå
Jag kommer aldrig att förstå
