Postcard #19
[Verse 1]
The Botanical Gardens
Is full of newlyweds
Emma pretends to vomit
But Kasper looks up and says:
"I wouldn't mind if one day
That was you and me"
Emma kisses his mouth and says:
"Over my dead body"

[Chorus]
But hey, pumpkin pie
I'm gonna love you 'til I die
It's just scary sometimes
But 'til death and beyond
Baby, you're the one I want

[Verse 2]
The tram screeches like a dying cat
Flying out of Slottsskogen
Kasper takes out a sharpie
And writes on her hand:
"Every day is a summer's day
With you, babe"
There's a guy sitting opposite
Peeking from under his cap
Emma whispers to Kasper:
"Let's give him something to look at"
[Chorus]
Oh, pumpkin pie
I'm gonna love you 'til I die
It's just scary sometimes
But 'til death and beyond
Baby, you're the one I want

[Post-Chorus]
You're the one that I want
The one that I want

[Verse 3]
Emma turns on the TV
Sees the guy from the tram before
He's on a late night talkshow
Some kind of troubadour
They ask him where he gets his stories from
He says: "Well, just today
I saw this couple on the tram
And a story took place"
How fragile and bold
Isn't young love
Like skating on a frozen lake
When it's five above

[Outro]
Emma turns off the TV
Looks at Kasper yawn
She knows they're more than some characters
In some stupid song
She says: "'Til death and beyond"
Baby, you're the one I
Baby, you're the one that I want
