scandinavian girl

Singer: al stewart

the gothenburg streets were like silver sheets

as i kicked my feet through the snowy world

and in that land there i held the hand of my scandinavian girl

we stood as part of a bleak facade

though the city's heart was still beating

and for a while there i shared a smile with my scandinavian girl

and i stood there quite surprised

to see reflected in her eyes

the very thought i left unsaid as too unwise. and so we passed through a world of glass

and the moment passed and was lost to time

time too soon with his broken moon took my scandinavian girl
