Laakso - Norrköping lyrics

Three and a half when we met for the first time

A thing I can't remember but I know it anyhow

Neighbours brothers, brothers for life

Fell in love with the same girls in our hometown

Nothing could part us, not one thing

When we walked the streets of Norrköping

You were the first of us to make love 13'th of December '94

Santa Lucia what was it like

To have a girl in your boy room the whole night

I hated you and your first girlfriend

Thought I was alone in the world being a virgin

A hard competition in all we did

A complete war on the football field

You said that bananas could make us high

Saved them in your locker till they got dry

Remember how cool we felt

Behind the corner smoking cigarettes

Tanja killed herself, Benny had an overdose

Niklas Karlsson got a new nose

I hope you're all free wherever you might be

We're all part of the history of Norrköping

I think we were about 17 when you said "money is gonna make me free"

You pulled your pants up, no more baggy jeans

No more football I'll go for the studies

I met you again a few weeks ago

You had a proper job and a place to call home

You had earned your first grand

And you looked like a real businessman

You said "Yes things are different yes things have changed

But I'll always love you it will always be the same

and I know that there will be a time when we will be

back together in our hometown Norrköping"
