Naifuzan is on a distinguished road

Some Bob Dylan in swedish! =)


This is a quick little cover of Bob Dylan's "Tomorrow is a long time", but as translated by Ulf Dageby of a swedish band called Nationalteatern.

Thought you might find it a fun to hear me sing in swedish

Love the lyrics to this one. Dylan's original lyrics go:

If today was not an endless highway
If tonight was not a crooked trail,
If tomorrow wasn't such a long time,
Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all.

Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin',
if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin',
Yes, and only if she was lyin' by me,
I'd lie in my bed once again.

I can't see my reflection in the waters,
I can't speak the sounds that show no pain,
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps,
Or can't remember the sound of my own name.

Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin...

There's beauty in the silver, singin' river,
There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky,
But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty
That I remember in my true love's eyes.

Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin...


And here are the swedish lyrics if you wanna sing along

Om idag inte var en ändlös landsväg
och i natt en vild och krokig stig
om i morgon inte kändes så oändlig
Då är ensamhet ett ord som inte finns

Men bara om min älskade väntar
och om jag hör hennes hjärta sakta slå
Bara om hon låg här tätt intill mig
kan jag bli den jag var igår

Jag kan inte se min spegelbild i vattnet
Jag kan inte säga sorgelösa ord
Jag hör inte mitt eko slå mot gatan
Kan inte minnas vem jag var igår

Men bara om min älskade väntar...

Det finns skönhet i flodens silversånger
Det finns skönhet i gryningssolens sken
Men då ser jag i min älskades öga
en skönhet större än allting som jag vet!

Och bara om jag vet att hon väntar
och om jag hör hennes hjärta sakta slå
Bara om hon låg tätt intill mig
kan jag bli den jag var igår

I find it a lot harder to sing in swedish than english by the way. Cause I've got a bit of a dialect, and sometimes it's hard not to use it while singing
