lyrics

(instrumental)

Two hours north and a completely different weather
She meets me at the station in a coat I bought her
Wrong size, she wears it anyway, has worn it for six years
(for six years)
That's the only review of my taste I've ever trusted

She doesn't ask about the charts (about the charts)
She asks if I've been eating. Both are data.

Uppsala
(Uppsala)
Where nobody has heard of anything I've done
Uppsala
And I have never once felt smaller in a good way

Her kids think I work "with computers", which is close enough
They showed me a song they liked and it was one of mine
Written for somebody else, sung by somebody else
(somebody else)
I said "that's nice" and went to the kitchen and stood there

I nearly told them. I had the sentence ready.
Then I didn't, because it would have made it about me,
and we were having such a nice afternoon.
(FULL PRODUCTION, WARM)

Uppsala
(Uppsala)
Where nobody has heard of anything I've done
Uppsala
And I have never once felt smaller in a good way
