Lyrics
I Keep Reminding Myself
We used to laugh with nothing to say
A quiet glance could make my day
But time went on the colors turned gray
And love it slipped away
You slept on one side I on the floor
Hearts in the house but not anymore
Still when I walk past that old café
I hear your voice replay
I tried to move on said I'd be fine
But memories hit me line by line
I keep reminding myself
What we had was more than time could shelf
Through the silence through the fight
Love was never out of sight
I keep reminding myself
We were more than just someone else
Now I see what we had
And baby I want it back
Sometimes love just lays low
Waiting for the heart to know
And now I know
We talked last night like old best friends
A spark returned no need to pretend
And in your smile I found the start
The place I left my heart
I keep reminding myself
What we had was more than time could shelf
Through the silence through the fight
Love was never out of sight
I keep reminding myself
Yeah I keep reminding myself
The Man in My Life
I walked through years of empty talk,
Wrong turns and lonely walks.
I danced with charm and lost my way,
But none of them ever stayed.
The nights were long, the days were fine,
But love was always just a line.
'Til I looked up and you were there,
Like the answer to a prayer.
And now I finally see,
What love was meant to be
You're the man in my life,
The calm in the storm, the end of the strife.
Took a while, but now I know,
You're the place where I can go.
You're the song in my head,
The quiet truth in words unsaid.
Now I breathe, and I believe
You're the man in my life.
They said love would come in time,
I just never knew it'd feel this right…
Now morning feels like something new,
With coffee, smiles, and thoughts of you.
No more guessing, no more doubt,
You're the love I dreamed about.
And in your arms I see,
A life that's real, that's free
You're the man in my life,
The calm in the storm, the end of the strife.
Took a while, but now I know,
You're the place where I can go.
You're the flame in my soul,
The missing piece that made me whole.
Now I breathe, and I believe
You're the man in my life
The Mystery We Are
What lies behind the morning light A breath, a step, a fleeting sight
We chase the day, yet never know Where all our hidden questions go
A child's gaze, an old man's sigh The silent stars that fill the sky
Each shoal, a whisper on the breeze Each thought, a key without the keys
And we ask why we're here, where we go In the stillness, in the flow
We are echoes, we are flame Born with nothing but a name
In the riddle, near and far We remain the mystery we are
The years like water slip away We hold on tight but none can stay
Yet in each voice that dares to sing We feel the pull of everything
And again, we just try, live and learn Till the stars no longer burn
We are echoes, we are flame Born with questions none the same
In the silence, near and far We remain the mystery we are
We remain the mystery we are
Moving on to the Next Day
I woke up with your name still in my head
My coffee's cold and so's the side of the bed
I tell myself to breathe, to stand up tall
But the silence keeps me small
The mirror says I'm stronger than I feel
But it don't know how long it takes to heal
I paint on smiles just to get me through
But every shade still looks like you
It's easier said than done
But I'm not the only one
Trying to let go of yesterday
Anything's fine
I'm moving on to the next day
One more breath, one more way
To keep walking though the light feels far
I'm moving on, though it's not okay
Still I rise, come what may
Just me and the beating of my heart
Moving on to the next day
Your jacket's still hanging on the chair
I keep thinking I should care
But every time I try to throw it out
I get caught in what we were about
It's not a clean goodbye
No fireworks in the sky
Just the sound of me still standing
I'm moving on to the next day
One more step, come what may
Even broken wings can learn to fly
I'm moving on and it's not brave
But it's the only way to say
A little love myself tonight
Moving on to the next day
One foot then the other in the morning light
Still here, still trying, still holding tight
Moving on to the next day
Thanks for watching
Summer Nights in Europe
Late night train from Amsterdam
The city lights behind
A postcard sky in Tuscany
With you still on my mind
A cafe chair in Lisbon's sun
Where strangers fall in love
But I keep dreaming of someone
Back home I'm thinking of
Oh, summer nights in Europe
Full of charm and wine
Guitars beneath the moonlight
Stars that seem to shine
But every song reminds me
Of your smile so true
Cause all these summer nights
I'm missing you
A rooftop bar in Barcelona
The music soft and slow
French perfume in ice at dusk
The kind you used to know
I walk through streets in silhouette
Where lovers laugh and sway
But I would trade it all my love
To hear your voice today
Oh, summer nights in Europe
Full of charm and wine
Guitars beneath the moonlight
Stars that seem to shine
But every song reminds me
Of your smile so true
Cause all these summer nights
I'm missing you
The world is warm and golden
But I feel so far away
From the one who gave
Those colors meaning yesterday
Oh, summer nights in Europe
Beautiful and wild
But nothing feels complete
Without you by my side
The breeze may kiss my shoulders
The wine may flow like blue
But all these summer nights
I'm missing you
Lyrics translated by HIPHOPLE
Stockholm in my Soul
Didn't know a place could sing, then I heard her morning ring
Woke up to a cafe sunrise, tram bells dancing on the stone
Took a stroll through Sutter's heartbeat, and I never felt alone
There's a rhythm in the water, and a poem in the air
Where the north light hits the harbor, you just breathe, and beauty's there
Stockholm's in my soul, like a compass made me whole
Every bridge a quiet whisper, every park a secret road
Stockholm's soft and wide, where the city hearts collide
You're a waltz of time and tide, you're my skyline's sweetest pride
Gambler's stand and modern marvels, sky-guard dreams and glass and gold
From the laughter in the subways, to the tales the birches told
I've seen cities light with glamour, but none dance quite like you
With your poetry and patience, and your Baltic shades of blue
Stockholm's in my song, been my anchor all along
With your silence and your motion, like a quiet fearless strong
Stockholm, shine for me, you're where soul and skyline meet
From Hornstal to Normholm's flame, you still whisper my first name
You don't shout, you don't pretend, but you stay until the end
Stockholm's in my soul, more than beauty, more than gold
You're the pulse beneath my evening, and my morning's northern glow
Stockholm, hold me near, you're my truth and souvenir
So I raise this glass to you, to the town that made me new
From the water to the sky, Stockholm, you're my lullaby
Thanks for watching
Diana on my Mind
I saw her at the cafe down the street Eyes like autumn, smiles so sweet
She said hello like she'd known me for years And something shifted in my atmosphere
We talked till the chairs were stacked away Forgot the world, the bills, the date
She laughed like a song I used to know And I knew I couldn't let her go
Time had passed me by Till she looked me in the eye
Diana is on my mind She's the rhythm I couldn't find
In a life that lost its pace She came and gave it grace
Diana is in my soul Like a fire I can't control
Everything just feels aligned Diana is on my mind
Some people drift, some make you stay She made my fears just float away
We walk through parks and evening lights Talk about dreams, about wrongs and rights
And though I'd stop believing in the spark She lit it gently in the dark
Now the future's wide and new And every path leads back to you
Diana is on my mind Like a verse that always rhymes
In a moment, in a glance She gave this heart a second chance
Diana is in the breeze In the quiet, in the leaves
Everything just feels aligned Diana is on my mind
Diana
Diana
Diana
Diana
Diana
Diana
Backroads and Windwosills
I grew up where the houses all look the same Where everybody knew your dad's first name
Friday nights were high school games and dreams were just a waiting train
I kissed her first by the old church wall She moved away, I stayed through it all
They say I'm quiet but I still feel the echo of that small town ring
You can't hide in streets this small Every whisper bounces off the wall
Back roads and window sills Where time stands still and always will
Stories grow like tangled vines In every porch and parking line
Back roads and window sills You run but carry them still
Every mile, every climb Still echoes from that time
They all said I'd never leave Guess they knew what they believed
But now and then I try to go And somehow always end up home
The cafe's new but the voices stay Same old life, same old way
I've been around, I've seen a bit But something here still seems to fit
And when I doubt what I became This town reminds me of my name
Back roads and window sills Where love first hurts and sometimes heals
Where every fence and every sign Knows your past like it knows mine
Back roads and window sills The silence speaks, the morning chills
And even when I'm far away That town in me still stays
Thanks for watching
Our Summer in Europe
Brighter than the cafe lights in old Marseille
Chasing summer shadows through a winding bay
A map with circles drawn in midnight blue
You're all I need, you whispered and I knew
Dancing through the plazas under Spanish skies
Every echoed step a soft goodbye
A postcard kiss by Amsterdam's canals
Still hear your laugh beneath the church bell chimes
Tell me, do you still replay it
Every heartbeat hits replay it
Our summer in Europe
Ready, feel the rush begin
Hold your breath, we dive where stories spin
Summer in Europe, yeah
Paris lit the night like an open memoir
Summer in Europe, yeah
Seasons may fade but you're never too far
Love like a breeze
Summer in Europe, yeah
Lisbon sunsets painted dreams in wine
Berlin mornings caught between the lines
She's right, nothing more to me
And some more equally strange
Tintin slips away but the melody stays
Summer in Europe, yeah
Fireworks soared above the Danube sky
Summer in Europe, yeah
Whispers we shared will never die
Summer in Europe, yeah
Summer in Europe, yeah
Summer in Europe, yeah
Love through the Fall
We had the highs like mountains in July
Laughed till we cried beneath the silver sky
Our hands were strong, our hearts still new
We thought the world would bend for two
We had the lows, where silence filled the room
Nights we forgot how to come back soon
But even in the quiet, bruised and small
I felt your name behind it all
Did you ever doubt we'd find the shore
Even in the dark, I loved you more
This love we built together
Ready, let the light break in
Close your eyes, three, two, one
We rise, we fall, we win
Love through the fall
Held by the echoes when we almost let go
Love through the fall
Still standing tall where broken things grow
Love like a tide
Love like a tide
Love through the fall
Love through the fall
We said goodbye just to come back new
And every scar turned into something true
You said, let's try one more time
And I said, forever if you're still mine
Love ends, it breaks, but it redesigns
We held on tight when the world fell apart
Love through the fall
It's messy, but it's still the work of art
Love through the fall
Love through the fall
Love through the fall
Love through the fall
Love through the fall
You said, let's try one more time
And I said, forever if you're still mine
Love ends, it breaks, but it redesigns
Love through the fall
We held on tight when the world fell apart
Love through the fall
It's messy, but it's still the work of art
Love through the fall
Love through the fall
Love through the fall
Europe is Moving
From a sunrise over Paris, to a beer in old Berlin
I've danced in Lisbon's alleys, watched the London skyline bloom
Heard a cello in Vienna, felt Madrid light up Peru
Every border holds a story, every steeple sings a tune
And I carry them inside me, like a postcard to the moon
God save Europa, from the Alps to Irish shore
Every flag and tongue and cobblestone reminds me what I'm for
Europa, you're my song, where the different hearts belong
You're a choir made of nations, you've been singing all along
Shared a laugh in Rome with strangers, got lost in Prague at night
Sailed through Stockholm's summer silence, sipped espresso in first light
Every cafe, every crossing, feels like home and feels brand new
I'm a traveller with a compass, that keeps pointing back to you
God save Europa, you're my melody and map
You're the breeze in Barcelona, and the crack of midnight map
Europa, clear and true, I belong to more than few
You're the dream that walks in many, but comes home in me and you
Not a wall, not a line, just a pulse through space and time
God save Europa, may your lights forever shine
In your wisdom, wine and wonder, I have found this life of mine
Europa, bright and free, you're a ballad sung by me
So I raise my glass tonight, to the land that holds my king
From Helsinki down to Naples
You're my always, you're my wine
