Kig op Lyrics Translation – Leslie
Leslie writes about sitting on the edge of a bed, feeling the world’s weight, while dust drifts in the air. He tells of tear-soaked cheeks and a sunrise that calls him to rise. The words speak of dreaming to fly again after a thousand days of falling.
Sidder På SengekantenI’m sitting on the edge of the bed,
Og Mærker Hele Verdenand feeling the weight of the whole world.
Svævende StøvpartiklerDust particles are floating in the air.
Jeg Lægger Mig Tilbage Under Dynen IgenI’m laying back down under the covers again.
Nu Vågner Solen Og SkinnerNow the sun wakes up and shines,
På Mine Drivvåde Kinderonto my tear-soaked cheeks.
Som Om Den Kalder På MigIt’s as if it’s calling out to me,
Kom Nu Skal Du Rejse Dig‘Come on, it’s time to stand up now.’
Men Idag Så Vil Jeg Flyve Højt IgenBut today, I want to fly high again.
Alt Jeg Ville Var At Skubbe Mig SelvAll I wanted was to push myself,
Tilbage Ud I Verdenback out into the world.
Jeg Falder Jeg Falder Jeg FalderI’m falling, I’m falling, I’m falling.
Falder I 1000 DageI’ve been falling for a thousand days.
Jeg Drømmer Jeg Drømmer Jeg DrømmerI’m dreaming, I’m dreaming, I’m dreaming,
Om At Komme Tilbageabout coming back,
Til Det Jeg Har Glemtto everything I’ve forgotten.
For Jeg Vil Mindes IgenBecause I want to remember once more.
Jeg Falder Jeg Falder Jeg FalderI’m falling, I’m falling, I’m falling.
Falder I 1000 DageI’ve been falling for a thousand days.
Jeg Drømmer Jeg Drømmer Jeg DrømmerI’m dreaming, I’m dreaming, I’m dreaming,
Om At Komme Tilbageabout coming back,
Til Det Jeg Har Glemtto everything I’ve forgotten.
For Jeg Vil Mindes IgenFor I want to recall it all again.
Nu Kigger Jeg OpNow I’m looking up.
Det Var Jo Det Som Du Du SagdeThat’s exactly what you told me.
Nu Åbner Himlen Sig Op OgNow the sky’s opening up, and
Holder Mig Fast I Sin Favnit’s holding me tight in its embrace.
Bygger I Morgen Med Det Jeg Har LærtI’m building tomorrow with what I’ve learned,
Af Dig Der Viser Mig Vejenfrom you, the one who shows me the way.
Gad Vide Om Tiderne SkifterI wonder if the times are changing,
Gad Vide Om Det Kommer IgenI wonder if it’ll happen again,
Uanset Hvadno matter what.
Er Jeg Ik Bange For Hvor Jeg Skal HenI’m not afraid of where I’m going.
Jeg Falder Jeg Falder Jeg FalderI’m falling, I’m falling, I’m falling.
Falder I 1000 DageI’ve been falling for a thousand days.
Jeg Drømmer Jeg Drømmer Jeg DrømmerI’m dreaming, I’m dreaming, I’m dreaming,
Om At Komme Tilbageabout coming back,
Til Det Jeg Har Glemtto everything I’ve forgotten.
For Jeg Vil Mindes IgenBecause I want to remember once more.
Men Jeg Falder Jeg Falder Jeg FalderBut I’m falling, I’m falling, I’m falling.
Falder I 1000 DageI’ve been falling for a thousand days.
Jeg Drømmer Jeg Drømmer Jeg DrømmerI’m dreaming, I’m dreaming, I’m dreaming,
