Du Har Mødt En KvindeYou’ve met a woman.
Det Var Før Du Mødte MigSomeone from before you met me.
Og For To Timer Siden Rendte I To På Hinanden IgenAnd two hours ago, you two bumped into each other again.
Og Det Har Skræmt DigAnd it’s scared you.
Hun Var Sammen Med Sin Nye KæresteShe was with her new boyfriend.
Som Ogs’ Ligner DigWho also looks like you.
De Holdt I Hånden Og Hun Spurgte Hvordan Du Har Det For TidenThey were holding hands, and she asked how you’re doing these days.
Og Nu’ Du LigblegAnd now you’re pale as a ghost.
For Hvad Ku’ Livet Ik’ Være Blevet TilFor what could life have turned into?
Hvis Det Var Hende Du Var Gået MedIf she was the one you’d ended up with.
Hvor Længe Har Du Tænkt Dig At Gå Med Hendes HalskædeHow long do you plan to keep wearing her necklace?
Du Si’r Det Til Mig Midt I DagligstuenYou tell me this right in the middle of the living room.
Et Godt Drama Her I AftensolenQuite the drama here in the evening sun.
Jeg Sidder Stift I Min LænestolI sit stiffly in my armchair.
Og Forsøger At Bevare RoenAnd try to keep my composure.
Hun Var Sammen Med Sin Nye KæresteShe was with her new boyfriend.
Som Ogs’ Ligner Dig Det Har Du SagtWho also looks like you, or so you’ve said.
Jeg Googler Hendes Navn Det Sku’ Jeg Ik’ Ha’ GjordtI Google her name; I shouldn’t have done that.
Nu Er Jeg Helt ØdelagtNow I’m completely devastated.
For Hvad Ku’ Livet Ik’ Være Blevet TilFor what could life have turned into?
Hvis Det Var Hende Du Var Gået MedIf she was the one you’d ended up with.
Hvor Længe Har Du Tænkt Dig At Gå Med Hendes HalskædeHow long do you plan to keep wearing her necklace?

Hvis Det Var Hende Du Var Gået MedIf she was the one you’d ended up with.
Sig Mig Hvor Længe Har Du Tænkt Dig At Gå Med Hendes HalskædeTell me, how long do you plan to keep wearing her necklace?
Du Har Mødt En Kvinde Hvad Skal Jeg Stille OpYou’ve met a woman; what am I supposed to do?
Jeg Kan Kun Tilbyde Denne Krop Er Den TilstrækkeligI can only offer this body; is it enough?
For Hvad Ku’ Livet Ik’ Være Blevet TilFor what could life have turned into?
Hvor Længe Har Du Tænkt Dig At Gå Med Hendes HalskædeHow long do you plan to keep wearing her necklace?
Ja Hvad Ku’ Livet Ik’ Være Blevet TilYes, what could life have turned into?
