Jeg er sterkere,
enn du trodde
Har blitt flink til å late som
Jeg har klart det en gang,
og jeg skal klare det igjen
Men nå
skal jeg stå i regnet
I Used to Be Naive in Ways of Love
I used to be naive in ways of love,
Believing in that something out there,
Something ordained
And destined from above.
I have no illusions anymore--
The one I used to love and to adore
Turned out to be a hooker
Nothing more.
I used to feel so sad about her life,
Believed she was a victim of abuse,
But then I realized there is no use--
I cannot change her
And she's someone else's wife.
I loved so many times and felt betrayed,
Gave up on even trying to understand--
How can you love someone and cannot stand
Their immoral and self-destructive ways?
I no longer try to figure out
Why people choose to live a certain way,
For when it's time to go, I get out--
It's better just to go than to stay.
The ones that look so innocent, are not,
They only prey upon your sympathies,
While blaming others for their unhappy lot--
Never themselves for what they choose to be.

Står i regnet
Med: Karoline
Vers Jeg kan ikke se klart
Jeg hører deg le et sted
Jeg ser ditt ansikt
Mens jeg vet du ikke er her
En dag vil det blir bra
Men til da kan jeg late som
En dag vil det bli bra
Men til da
Skal jeg vente på deg her
Ref.
Jeg har klart det en gang
og jeg skal klare det igjen
Men nå er det bare å vente
Jeg har klart det en gang
og jeg skal klare det igjen
Men nå skal jeg stå i regnet
Jeg er sterkere,
enn du trodde
Har blitt flink til å late som
Jeg har klart det en gang,
og jeg skal klare det igjen
Men nå
skal jeg stå i regnet
Vers
Det kan ikke bli det samme
Uten deg her hos meg
Men jeg skal stå oppreist
Skal stå her og vente på deg
Men det kan ikke bli det samme
Men jeg skal stå oppreist
Det kan ikke bli det samme
Står fortsatt å venter på deg
Ref.
Standing in the Rain
by Karoline
Vers
I can't see clear
I hear you laughing somewhere
I see your face
While I know you're not here
One day it'll be good
But till then I can pretend
One day it'll be good
But till then
I shall be waiting for you
Ref.
I have done it once
and I shall do it again
But now I'll just have to wait
I have done it once
and I shall do it again
But now I'll have to stand in the rain
I'm stronger
than you thought
I've been good in pretending
I have done it once
and I shall do it again
But now
I'll have to stand in the rain
Vers
It can't be the same
Without you here where I am
But I'll have to stand
Have to stand here waiting for you
But it can't be the same
But I have to stand
It can't be the same
Still standing waiting for you
