written on the ferry between Stavanger and Bergen

lyrics


(The only things I miss
are things that never were
so I enter bliss
like wiping dust off a mirror) (not sung out loud, just thought)

In Oslo you can take your dog on the bus
thus,
every trip is taken in the presence of someone you can trust
No matter how drunk
No matter how sad
No matter how angry
No matter how bad
No matter how lonely
No matter who died
No matter who betrayed you
No matter who lied
All in all a less lonely place
All in all a less lonely place
Traveling with a familiar face
all in all...
In Norway you can take your dog on the train
therefore,
every trip is taken in the company of someone with a brain
No matter how crazy
No matter how tired
No matter you’ve failed
everything you’ve tried
no matter you take.........
everything too far
you don’t have a ticket
here comes the conductor

(The only things I regret
Are the things I wouldn’t change)

In Norway you can take your dog on the boat
therefore, every trip is taken in the presence of someone wearing a fur coat
No matter how poor
No matter how cold
No matter how hungry
No matter no smokes
No matter how old.........
No one laughs at your jokes
No matter how crippled
trying to look normal
All in all...
A dog lends a certain grace
when you’re giving up on the human race
