The obstacles we build for ourselves, my love
Creating decisions to make, my love
When, really, it could be this easy
You and me, and house, and food

Your roots are stuck in the dirt of this land
My questions all answered in the firmness of your hand
I buried some hatred in the snow on the porch
And when it comes undone, I will understand

And the wind in the trees are all "sch-uuung, sch-uuung"
And the trains that pass by are all "sch-du-dung, sch-du-dung"
And you and me are like "let's go out for a walk"

And our feet in the snow are like "tsch-ooo, tsch-ooo"
And the choir in my chest is like "oooo-oooo"
And the Stockholm insecurity is like I don't exist

Night dawns on us now, my love
We finally found a way to lie, my love
Without an arm getting numb
In the middle of us, my love

Don't you get scared of the people now
Who look you in the eye and smile at you now
Yes, they condemn you, but they won't tell
And that's just how it goes, my love

And the wind in the trees are all "sch-ooo, sch-ooo"
And the trains that pass by are all "sch-du-dung, sch-du-dung"
And you and me are like "let's go out for a walk"

And the tears in our eyes when we ski fast in the forrest
But the choir in my chest is always stuck on the chorus
And I know it's in me to get away from this

Though I like this the best, I always liked this the best

The obstacles we build for ourselves, my love
The time we spend making decisions, my love
There's a longing in me for things that yet haven't occured
So I'll return to you, city, again and again
