Adolphson Falk - Stockholm Serenade lyrics

From a thousand CCs

And to Johnny

The message is clean

The words of the song are

- Tonight you are free

And the music's strong

And sweet Marie

Waits with her dreams

And her clouded eyes

And her rouge-laden cheeks

She yearns for the warmth

Of her Johnny's machine

Holding on tight

Into the night

In Stockholm

In a Stockholm serenade

In Stockholm

In a Stockholm serenade

She's dressed to kill

In her black leather jeans

And her lilac shades

She's a big city queen

Who will play her part

With a shrug and a smile

And a craving heart

And they ride

On their serpentine flight

Over tire marked roads

Under shattered street lights

Until far way

The city looks

Like a fiery jewel

Ablaze in the night

In Stockholm

In a Stockholm serenade

In Stockholm

In a Stockholm serenade

It's an eternity

From dusk to dawn

Before Johnny

Is back on his job

With his welding torch

And Marie's gentle touch

Still alive on his arm

For the night it is long

In Stockholm

In a Stockholm serenade

In Stockholm

In a Stockholm serenade

[In the original Swedish lyrics, Johnny is a computer operator and Marie (who

is called Cathrine) listens to synth pop. The rest of the lyrics are more or

less the same
