Minimalen [English translation]

I have a friend I never miss

I have a dream that comes true

and I do not notice the light that sneaks in

And I should think of change

and turn the other cheek

I only wait here until the darkness decides to disappear

I see everything I cast away

My simple excuse was that life is unusually good

At catching up with what you left behind

Babyface believes in his belief in himself

But that is something you will lose again

Again

Again

Again

Once we thought of travelling

Short notice, just set off

when every flight became a crash course in going under

I had a friend who called me sensitive

who maybe sensed me too well

but that version of Joakim has gone

I saw you in the park, your reddest of hair

The smell of the snow free cut grass spring

came like a storm in April, an immense

feeling of freedom heavier than sadness

This is something you will lose again

Again

You are a friend I have learned to miss

You are a dream under construction

I pretend to sleep but am awake when you sneak in

And we never went off to Memphis

Made no pilgrimage to the west

And that blind fanatical drive is something I miss

The dream of Graceland

Myth-starved children

The gates open and the ghost of Elvis

left standing in his boundless solitude

searching desperately for his lost integrity

That is something that will never come again

Again
