Siden och Grus

En hyllning till min kära vän Malin som fyller 20 år idag.

Jag kan inte åka upp till Luleå och fira dig med tårta och presenter. Och en sångtext kanske kan verka klyschig, smörig och lite fjortis. Men jag tycker att den beskriver vår långa vänskap så väl. Genom femårs, sexårs, 9 års grundskola. Genom tonårsuppror, kärleksdramer, smink, avundsjuka, olydiga upptåg, dansturnéer och milslånga avstånd. Genom vått och torrt.. Du är en av mina absolut bästa vänner och jag vet att vi kommer att vara det livet ut.


I will allways be your soldier - Marit Bergman


We used to call each other Katherine and Eve
I don’t know from where we got those names
We used to love each other with deep intencity
We used to fight with kicks and fists and nails
If I had a dime for everytime I been bad
I’ll be a milionaire by now

You used your big sister brother comb
to tease me to tears
I used to pinch you a little bit too hard
On your wrists on your arms
if you look closely you can see the scars
Oh I have done things so mean and so grin
I’m too ashamed to say them out loud
I don’t think you get how much I regret
Oh here me when I vow

That I will always be your soldier
I’ll be marching by your side
I’m not deserting
I’ll be there for you
Oh please please believe in this oath allegiance

Thirteen years old, lipstick and boys
I never knew how lucky I was to have you
The great teenage depression our domestc civil war
And I think back you were the one to pull me through
Yeah what it comes down to is you are the one who truely understands
Wherever you go I hope that you know that I’m at your command

And I will always be your soldier
I’ll be marching by your side
I’m not deserting
I’ll be there for you
Oh please please believe in this oath allegiance

Oh, I will be strong for you, I will belong to you
Carry you, bleed for you
Run for miles

Won't you please please believe in this oath allegiance
Oh I'm not retreating this time
I won't surrender this time
I won't surrender this time
I'm your soldier
and will be marching here right by your side
