[Verse 1]
Father was just a fisherman
Fjords ordered him around
Still I went home to America
Forgot you and everyone in town
Made my way through the big city
Fought against the shadowed men
Robbed and hit
Shot and killed
A very dearful friend

[Chorus]
But I still remember the games we played
The hazelnuts that fell out of the trees
Underneath which we danced and we laid
The happiest moments without money

[Verse 2]
I came back one day mid-July
The wind was calm, the weather fair
I didn't recognize you at first
With leather shoes and longer hair
We said our kids will grow up
On the other side of the ocean
Where they’ll make it big and be big stars
And never know any emotion
[Chorus]
And I still remember the games we played
The hazelnuts that fell out of the trees
Underneath which we danced and we laid
The happiest moments without money
