Asleep in Stockholm Lyrics by Molly Nilsson

Europa

2009

I’m glad to see the snow is back
'Cause the nights were too black without it
And now the streets all glow covered in snow
And I wanna catch a cab, but I’m only catching a cold
It was packed with people at the show
Some of them said hello
Some of them, I think I know
You know the drill, you go out there, try not to get killed
The stage is the loneliest place I’ve ever been
And I was looking for your face
You’ve got the friendliest face I’ve ever seen
But I couldn’t find it in the crowd
Which isn’t so strange considеring how
You’re probably asleep in Stockholm now
But the audiencе was nice
They wanted me to sing the last song twice, but I didn’t
And afterwards I realized, it’s a fact
The backstage belongs to the friends of the opening act
(Which strangely wasn’t me)
Then they gave me insanely many drinking tickets
I had to finish all on my own
Of course, I’ll have an profanely wicked depression tomorrow
If I find myself alone, I’m gonna call you on the phone
The stage is the loneliest place I’ve ever been
I was looking for your face
You’ve got the friendliest face I’ve ever seen
But I couldn’t find it in the crowd
Which isn’t so strange considering how
You’re probably asleep in Stockholm now
