Two lone ones in the night of the city
Walk the streets with so fragile steps
A man and a woman, who have been led by wrong stars
The heart of them both is coldly comfortless
They happen to be at the same long taxi line
And soon they're like old friends1
And they tell their stories
To each other in turn
How the streets of the cruel land
Had taken them astray
Still the wounds hurt
From the shards of the past
When you can endure that pain
You can break the doors of love
Two lone ones in the night of the city
Both of them go their own ways
When for a moment they shared a similar fate
Scarred souls are full of peace
Maybe time will again lead to the same taxi line
And they'll be more than two friends
And they tell their stories to each other in turn…
1. "Tuttava" doesn't actually mean "friend" in Finnish - it is used for people who you know by name or so, but don't know that well overall.
