this town it has always had its memories,
emotions paved into the streets and floating in the air i breathe,
this town was meant for me,
it happened early in the summer of twenty one one,
we were standing on a street corner where we were not alone,
but it felt like just you and me,
we were the first to fall in love,
we were the first to fall apart,
but we were the lucky ones,
we were the lucky ones,
all we need,
is one last reason to believe,
that we can fall in love and fall apart again,
it wasn't long before i had to get on the road,
we were headed towards the east coast which used to be home,
but it's not home anymore,
cause you know what they say home is where the heart is,
while mine is wandering the streets of michigan,
and it's out there searching for you,
we were the first to fall in love,
we were the first to fall apart,
but we were the lucky ones,
we were the lucky ones,
all we need,
is one last reason to believe,
that we can fall in love and fall apart again,
all i know,
is i'm not ready to let go,
we could fall in love and fall apart again,
and when you left there wasn't a call not even a text,
to let me know of what was going on and why you left,
and now i'm sitting here,
wondering if it's something i said,
or did you finally realize that somehow this may be best,
and i've been finding words from moments past and photographs,
from feature films about a laugh that sparked a love til they both passed,
and even if they're far away they always find a way it could last,
we were the first to fall in love,
we were the first to fall apart,
but we were the lucky ones,
we were the lucky ones,
all we need,
is one last reason to believe,
that we can fall in love and fall apart again,
(and i will always find a piece of you lying around,)
(and i will always find my feet in this empty town,)
(i still remember every single thing you said to me i swear.)

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
