Skäl att tvivla

Snippet

Lyrics
Jag mötte en känsla
Det var längesen jag hade han här
Han har satt mej i en taxi
Med en nyfiken, nyvaken värld

Krossa inte stenen du slipat
Spräng inte berget du besteg
Ge mej inga skäl att tvivla
Skäl att tvivla på vem du är

Drömde om den känslan
En gång när lärkorna kom
Vaknade ensam bestulen
På allt jag drömt om

Krossa inte stenen du slipat
Spräng inte berget du besteg
Ge mej inga skäl att tvivla
På vad du vill och vem du är

Står bakom glas och ser att du vill ingenting krossa
(Ge mej inga skäl att tvivla, skäl att tvivla)
Men jag måste se, se mycket mera ändå

Flingorna faller
så hoppas du har tak på ditt hus
Du får mej raglande av tveksamhet
Men full av förälskelsens rus

Krossa inte stenen du slipat
Spräng inte berget du besteg
Ge mej inga skäl att tvivla
Skäl att tvivla på vem du är

Skäl att tvivla!

English translation

Reasons to Doubt
I met this feeling
It was a long time since I had him here
He put me in a taxi
With a curious, newly awakened world

Don't break the stone you've polished
Don't blow up the mountain you climbed
Don't give me any reasons to doubt
Reasons to doubt who you are

Dreamed about that feeling
Once when the larks came
Woke up alone robbed
of everything I've dreamed about

Don't break the stone you've polished
Don't blow up the mountain you climbed
Don't give me any reasons to doubt
what you want and who you are

Standing behind glass and seeing that you don't want to break anything
(Give me no reasons to doubt, reasons to doubt)
But I have to see, so much more still

The flakes are falling
so I hope you have a roof on your house
You can have me staggering from uncertainty
But drunk from the intoxication of infatuation

Don't break the stone you've polished
Don't blow up the mountain you climbed
Don't give me any reasons to doubt
Reasons to doubt who you are

Reasons to doubt!

Comments

Recorded for "Puls" but Gyllene grew sick of it and ditched it. Maria Wickman recorded it instead.
