Sånt är livet [English translation]

That's life for you! That's life for you!

There's so much duplicity living here.

Those you lose, someone else wins,

so the friend you love, hold them tight!

She (he) came with the spring, like a spring breeze.

She (he) got my love and all she (he) took.

But then autumn came and the love

she (he) swore was eternal just went and died.

Yeah, that's life for you! That's life for you!

There's so much duplicity living here.

Those you lose, someone else wins,

so the friend you love, hold them tight!

She (he) got someone else. I have seen them.

She (he) seems happy, and he (she) is young.

What I have learnt, is this:

When your heart stings - sing, just sing !

Because that's life for you! That's life ......

Our lives are poor without love.

I got another who loves me.

Whose (his) old love has gotten the basket.

He (she) surely wonders who I am!

But that's life for you! That's life....
