The next chapter is without you
The next chapter is all mine
The Sun will rise
again for me
And I will see
Just how good life can be
Last chapter was ours
the next one is mine
not as I had planned it
but I’m still fine
My next chapter
is filled with love and laughter
made room for new things
look forward to what life brings
History is written by the winner,
so I guess ours is devided in two
neither right, neither wrong
different experiances, me and you
But as the sun set on yesterday
I look forward to the next chapter
written by beams of the rising sun
as the last darkness scatter
The next chapter is without you
The next chapter is all mine
The Sun will rise
again for me
And I will see
Just how good life can be
Eyes on the prize
lesson learned
Future before me
My ticket is earned
Blood sweat and tears
Facing inner fears
Growing to a better me
Brand new masters degree
Next page is blank,
Next chapter is new
Anything is possible
Like a fresh debute
The next chapter is without you
The next chapter is all mine
The Sun will rise
again for me
And I will see
Just how good life can be

Min väg går framför mig
en ensam vandrare
färdas natt som dag
dagar och nätter
skrivs in i min historia
i horisonten min morgondag
ibland komma ett vägskäl längs min väg
trodde aldrig att mina steg skulle leda till dej
men ändå kom du, varma Nordanvind
Du fann din väg till mej
Nu är du här, nu är idag, du är idag
å du står där, å här står jag
det här är en stund, med ett före och ett efter
å hur det ser ut, skapar vi, du och jag
Jag var ensam och kall
mörkret låg tungt runtom
då hörde jag din sång
du gnistrande Norrsken
lyste upp gav hopp
du Nordanvind,
tina upp min frusna kropp
du lämna din varma signatur
lämna längtan kvar
jag frågar mig hur, ja jag frågar mig hur
å idag får jag svar
Nu är du här, nu är idag, du är idag
å du står där, å här står jag
det här är en stund, med ett före och ett efter
å hur det ser ut, skapar vi, du och jag

My path lies before me A lone wanderer Journeying night and day Days and nights Written into my story On the horizon, my tomorrow Sometimes a crossroads appears along my way Never thought my steps would lead to you But still you came, warm North wind You found your way to me
Now you are here, now is today, you are today And you stand there, and here I stand This is a moment, with a before and an after And how it looks, we create, you and I
I was alone and cold Darkness lay heavy all around Then I heard your song You sparkling Northern Lights Lit up, gave hope You North wind, Thawed my frozen body You left your warm signature Left longing behind I ask myself how, yes I ask myself how And today I get the answer
Now you are here, now is today, you are today And you stand there, and here I stand This is a moment, with a before and an after And how it looks, we create, you and I

For a special day. But then again, isn’t every day special? Isn’t everyday full of opportunities? I believe so, yet still. A special day.

One two three
One for me
One to be
The one for me
There is a time for everyone and everything
There was a time when I had your ring
No regrets, no second thoughts, and I really thought
You were the one
Now I find myself alone, standing on the edge of the glass looking down
Nose above the surface, I don’t drown
But I really thought you were the one
One two three
One for me
One to be
The one for me
We had ups and downs, like everyone I guess
And as we grew appart, I didn’t love you less
You are still the one, who gave me her
And it changed med forever
The loneliness is hard to bear
It’s nothing I fear, without you dear
I grow strong in my own way
And I can honestly say
I thought you were the one
One two three
One for me
One to be
The one for me

Ta min hand i din
Jag vill ha din i min
Du står här framför mig
Vet inte vad jag ska säga
Mitt hjärta galopperar
Men tungan den känns fast
Ser djupt i dina ögon
Min värd den snurrar till
Fast jag ej kan säga nåt
Så vet jag vad jag vill
Ta min hand i din
Jag vill ha din i min
Jag vill följa dig
Dit du vill gå
Å Om du följer mig
Kan det bli vi två
Längtar så efter att
Få möta dina läppar
Få va nära dig
Kom, vill du va me mej?
Ta min hand i din
Jag vill ha din i min
När du är nära mig
Blir det mjuka hårt
Det e så de ska vara
(Behöver ej förklara)
Vill vara i din famn
Ha dig i min
Låta tiden glömmas bort
Vill va i stundens hetta
Vill stanna kvar i detta
Låta tiden glömmas bort
Ta min hand i din
Jag vill ha din i min

Take my hand in yours I want yours in mine You stand here before me Don’t know what to say My heart is galloping But my tongue feels stuck Looking deep into your eyes My world starts to spin Though I can’t say a word I know what I want
Take my hand in yours I want yours in mine I want to follow you Wherever you want to go And if you follow me Maybe it can be the two of us Longing so much to Meet your lips Be close to you Come, will you be with me?
Take my hand in yours I want yours in mine When you are near me Soft becomes hard That’s how it should be (Don’t need to explain) Want to be in your embrace Have you in mine Let time be forgotten Want to be in the heat of the moment Want to stay here in this Let time be forgotten
Take my hand in yours I want yours in mine

To borrow a line from Good Will Hunting, you could say that this track is the equivalent to:
“Gotta go see about a girl”.

This is the result of challengeing myself. I asked for input from others, a title for the song, and four words that I had to use in the lyrics.
Thank you VBU, E, AI and B for your contribution! Much appreciated!
The whole purpose of this exercise was to get a framework and create something within that framework. So if someone calls and asks: can you do this soundtrack or something like that, I can now say: yes, I can! Before this EP I could only answer – yeah, I’ll try! Being fairly confident that I could. Now I know!

Life happens but there is always a choice
take lead, or drown in the noice
not saying it is easy, just saying it’s up to you
oppinions doesn’t matter, it’s all what you do
choices and actions speak loudar than words
It makes you fly higher than the birds
some consequenses are heavy to take
but you’ll grow much stronger before you break
It’s all about personal growth
through blood, sweat and tears
but don’t forget friends and laughter
and live happily ever after
should you fall, choose to get up
make it your choice when to stop
every small step, takes you part of the way
it’s totally up to you, when to move and when to stay
direction is important but will more so
will to strive, and will to go
explore your journey, each path you take
everything is a lesson, never a mistake
It’s all about personal growth
through blood, sweat and tears
but don’t forget friends and laughter
and live happily ever after

Idag möttes jag av
en utsträckt hand, i ett virvlande hav
möjligheterna bjöd upp mig till dans
allt är möjligt, det finns en chans
solen smeker mej på kinden
lyckan dansar i vinden
jag kommer ur stormen till en stilla hamn
lyckan ler med öppen famn
Det är med lätthet
jag tar min chans
släpper taget om
svårigheternas dans
jag virvlar fritt
i ett härligt flow
jag lyses upp
i ett mäktigt glow
som att vinna jackpott
utan lott
få en gratis hyrbil
med fria mil
som en kock med köket fyllt
å den vilsna ser rätt skylt
som solsken efter stormen
när rebellen krossar normen
Det är med lätthet
jag tar min chans
släpper taget om
svårigheternas dans
virvlar fritt
i ett härligt flow
jag lyses upp
i ett mäktigt glow

Today I was met by An outstretched hand, in a swirling sea Possibilities invited me to dance Anything is possible, there’s a chance The sun caresses my cheek Happiness dances in the wind I emerge from the storm to a peaceful harbor Happiness smiles with open arms
It is with ease I take my chance Let go of The dance of difficulties I twirl freely In a wonderful flow I am illuminated In a powerful glow Like winning the jackpot Without a ticket Getting a free rental car With unlimited mileage Like a chef with a fully stocked kitchen And the lost one sees the right sign Like sunshine after the storm When the rebel breaks the norm
It is with ease I take my chance Let go of The dance of difficulties I twirl freely In a wonderful flow I am illuminated In a powerful glow
