lyrics

Å vi tar det
å vi tar det
å vi tar ett steg fram
å två tillbaks

När vi dansar långsamt
Är vi ensamma
I livets balsal är vi alla grå
Kan vi nå ända till taket
Med klackarna i taket
Och varje litet steg vi tar på tå

Å vi tar det
å vi tar det
å vi tar ett steg fram
å två tillbaks

Vill du va i ljuset
Du är ensam där
Vill du offra allt för en sekund
Du är sedd men ingen ser dig
Allas ögon på dig
Vi är alla glömda om en stund

Den sista kvar i baren
Med ett halvtomt glas
När alla vackra människor har gått hem
Från botten ser du bara taket
Klackarna i taket
Sov en stund och gör det om igen

Om du får allt det du önskar
Om alla bara säger ja och aldrig nej
Om dansen bara tar dig framåt
Har du snart all lämnat all musiken bakom dig
bakom dig

Å vi tar det
å vi tar det
å vi tar ett steg fram
å två tillbaks

--

And we're taking
And we're taking
And we're taking one step forward and two steps back

When we're dancing slowly
- Are we alone
In the ballroom of life we are all grey
- Can we reach the ceiling
With our heels on the ceiling
and with every little step we're taking we're on our toes

And we're taking
And we're taking
And we're taking one step forward and two steps back

Do you want to be in the spotlight
- You are alone there
Do you want to sacrifice everything for one second
- You are seen but no one sees you
All eyes are on you
Soon we are all forgotten

The last one left in the bar
- With a half empty glass
After all the beautiful people went home
- From the bottom all you can see is up
With our heels on the ceiling
Sleep a while and do it all again

And we're taking
And we're taking
And we're taking one step forward and two steps back
