Ensam lång väg hem [English translation]

Only when the rains came

And the right wind blew

I took a train from Stockholm

Wide world via Flen

With the most ordinary of plans

And nothing new to come with

And there was actually nothing to flee from

Just nothing more to give

Only when the rain came

I realized something was wrong

It was a quiet shaking

Under the streets, far down

It was the most common premonition

Neither more nor less

And there was nothing to flee from

There was no time to pray

And a wide opened road rolls out in front of us

In a wasted town where atheists wear crosses

I tell you it was lucky you came

I have skyhigh pretensions and these are enough

But it’s nothing to me

Only when the spring came

With solidarity

I miss home to Stockholm

I realized the extent of my treachery

And with the lamest of excuses

No talk or letter

So there was actually nothing to say

It just was like it was

And a wide opened road rolls out in front of us

In a wasted town where atheists wear crosses

I tell you it was lucky you came

I have skyhigh pretensions and these are enough

But it’s nothing to me

It was a lonely long way home

It was a lonely long way home

It was a lonely long way home

It was a lonely long way home

It was a lonely long way home
