Ankerstjerne - Nattog ft. Bjørnskov (English Translation) Lyrics[Verse 1: Ankerstjerne]
I heard you got yourself a daughter
It's really strange to think about
How time flies, how things can turn out
I do understand it's a long time since we said farewell
Actually, I don't think that I really let go of you
I wonder if she will inherit your melancholia
I wonder if her father treats you exactly the way you like it
I hope he knows he has an angel here on Earth
And that he holds better onto you than I did
The two of us, we drowned in bills
When we lacked money
And we had to go to work early the next morning, we stayed up late
We were in my bed talkin' about how it would be
When we one day would be millionaires
And we could see the entire world on my bed sheets
But you know how it is when two fools make plans
I realise that there is no turning back
I still remember the nights when I said
[Chorus: Bjørnskov]
Let's get away now, took you with me if I could
Outside my window, the world is flying by
And we disappear
You and I, you and I, you and I
You and I, you and I, you and I
Shut your eyes, now where night is falling
In a night train
[Verse 2: Ankerstjerne]
I wake up, not understanding how I ended up here
As if I am not driving the car, I am the passenger
Like a robot getting up, taking one day more
My salary has to be paid, no matter what
Since you left me, I have spent my time doing nothing
I fall asleep on my couch as soon as I get home
There are other girls, you know me
The problem is, that none of them is you and that's my mistake
You knew where you were going, asked if I wanted to come with you
But I wasn't really the guy you'd start a family with
You needed someone who could give you everything I couldn't
I'm rooting for the two of you, I really do
But if you ever regret it, if it won't work out with him
If you wake up early on morning in twenty years
You won't have to ask, just know that
I will wait for you at the station at midnight
[Chorus: Bjørnskov]
Let's get away now, took you with me if I could
Outside my window, the world is flying by
And we disappear
You and I, you and I, you and I
You and I, you and I, you and I
Shut your eyes now where night is falling
In a night train
[Bridge: Ankerstjerne]
We're sitting, looking at Copenhagen slowly passing away
We regret nothing, no tears on your cheek
People like you and I have never fit in, so
We're sitting here, looking at Copenhagen slowly passing away
Lay your head on my shoulder once more
I'll wake you up when we are there
[Chorus: Bjørnskov]
Let's get away now, took you with me if I could
Outside my window, the world is flying by
And we disappear
You and I, you and I, you and I
You and I, you and I, you and I
Shut your eyes now where night is falling
In a night train
[Outro: Bjørnskov]
In a night train, in a night train, in a night train
You and I, you and I, you and I
You and I, you and I, you and I
Shut your eyes now where night is falling
In a night train
