lyrics

You pressed the cord at Slussen, right on time

But you stepped down early, one stop from mine

Your red scarf caught the rain on Södermalm

You said, “I’ve got time,” and slid your glove in my palm

The bus pulled off, doors folding shut

Your boots hit the pavement, quiet and rough

You looked at me once, then you looked ahead

Like the whole long route had been cut

Four stops early

Four stops early

Four stops early

Four stops early

Just to walk with me

The bakery glass was fogged at seven-ten

A girl in a yellow coat passed us again

You kicked a small stone by the curb by the square

I saw your breath hang thin in the cold air

The next bus came, blue seats in a row

You shook your head, said, “Let it go”

Your sleeve brushed mine by the tram stop light

And I forgot where I was going tonight

Four stops early

Four stops early

Four stops early

Four stops early

Just to walk with me

When the driver closed the door and rolled away

You stayed beside me in the sleet and spray

No grand speech, just your keys in your hand

And the sound of our shoes on the wet platform

Four stops early

Four stops early

Four stops early

Four stops early

Just to walk with me
