Ärlighet respekt kärlek [English translation]

I knew where you had been

where you once came from

And once your history was also mine

Like music you only hear

when you can speak the same language

When you share all secrets

The great and the small

And I stole something you wanted to give me anyway

Tried to love what I took

But the honesty, the respect, the love just died

And I stole something you were prepared to give me

You forgave me, I could not look you

In the eye, sorry darling

I will do it soon again

I know where you take the path

when you are alone in your bed

And we return back and back again

Like a book you only write

when you have wasted every word

On meaningless obviousness, meaningless, meaningless

And I stole something you wanted to give me anyway

Tried to love what I took

But the honesty, the respect, the love just died

And I stole something you were prepared to give me

You forgave me, I could not look you

In the eye, sorry darling

I will do it soon again
