Leikkiä vaan [English translation]

Rusty blade of skates, left glove missing

Colors faded on Kurri's jersey

We played on icy lake, until we were forced home

Father made goals from backyard fence

Stick teams were decided, rules were agreed on

But at that time the match was dropped out short

It was just a game, just a game of boys

How I get them to believe?

It was just a game

I will always regret, that I made my brother go get it

I've paid big price of my mistakes

Maybe I just couldn't understand, that current can weaken the ice

I think how mother have managed through all this

It was just a game, just a game of boys

How I get them to believe?

It was just a game

Jerseys at hangers in the attic can stay

Old goal posts decay on the yard

Father has never talked about it

He has learned to get by with the sadness

It was just a game, just a game of boys

How I get them to believe?

It was just a game
