Drøm videre Violeta [English translation]

Hands up, money or your life

You stood and had to count to one hundred

Oh, but you peeked between your fingers

I lay waiting in the reeds for an hour

In the night you sat in our loft and sang

The moon was full and at her we howled

The nights were short and the days were too long,

Days were too long, days were too long, way too lo~oong

(breathe)

Ah, those were magical times that we had together back then

Oh, and you'd raise me up to the clouds and even higher up

I was your acrobat, always landing safely back in your arms

We'd have to be butterflies to feel ourselves any freer

And father would smile and wink at us from the ground

That was long ago; we don't have it that way anymore

Just between us two is a secret

Your dreams that we planted in soil down there

They grow from the ground when it's raining down,

Raining down, raining down, when it's raining down

I see it in you from my bed

Dreams sprouting up like flowerheads

And one very special and beautiful day

I'll leap over that fence with all I have

And I'll pick all of your dreams, 'till the ground is bare

Oh, you raised me higher, and higher, and higher and even higher up

I was your acrobat, always landing safely back in your arms

We'd have to be butterflies to feel ourselves any freer

And father would smile and wink at us from the ground

That was long ago; we don't have it that way anymore

I want back the times we had

You did the impossible

You made us feel like anything could occur

There was a rabbit in your top hat

I waited for an elephant

You pulled a rabbit out of your hat

I held my breath for an elephant
