Stockholm Lyrics


I've heard love songs make a Georgia man cry

On the shoulder of somebody's Saturday night

Read the good book, studied it too

But nothing prepared me for living with you

Lock me up tight in these shackles I wear

Tied up the keys in the folds of your hair

And the difference with me is I used to not care

Stockholm let me go home

Once a wise man to the ways of the world

Now I've traded those lessons for faith in a girl

Crossed the ocean, thousand years from my home

In this frozen old city of silver and stone

Ships in the harbor and birds on the bluff

Don't move an inch when their anchor goes up

And the difference with me is I've fallen in love

Stockholm let me go home

Let me go

And the night, so long, I used to pray for the daylight to come

Folks back home surely have called off the search and gone back to their own 

Ships in the harbor and birds on the bluff

Don't move an inch when their anchor goes up

And the difference with me is I've fallen in love

Stockholm let me go home


Let me go

Let me go home

Enjoy the lyrics !!!


Just a few years ago, the term Swedish pop was more or less synonymous with the 1960s: chipper hooks, throwback arrangements, turtlenecks, and soft-focus album covers. But in a very short time, the country's indie output-- at least as perceived from these shores-- seems to have advanced two decades, with acts like the Legends and Pacific! finding inspiration in the sounds of the early 1980s. In this regard, Jonathan Johansson is a new romantic, but not necessarily a New Romantic.
