[Verse 1: Klara]
Marianne stood by the window
Looking out on the street as the cars sailed by
Knew you wondered if he was going to magically reappear
Step out of his car, run into your arms, Marianne

[Chorus: Klara & Johanna]
Could wait for a sign
But you're just killing time and it's killing you too
What you can't put behind
It'll stay in your mind and it'll haunt you
Down, down, down

[Verse 2: Klara & Johanna]
He was, he was your only son
Like you were your mother's only daughter
You had to leave when they said
He didn't leave because of you or me
But because he saw no other way, Marianne

[Chorus: Klara & Johanna]
Could wait for a sign
You're just killing time and it's killing you too
You can't put behind
It'll stay in your mind and it'll haunt you
Down, down, down
[Bridge: Klara & Johanna]
And I'm not looking for a reason, I'm looking for truth
But if I find it meanwhile, it could be of good use
But there is no use, no use in blaming yourself
It won't lead to anything, Marianne

[Outro: Klara & Johanna]
But what good does this song?
But what good does convincing?
I'm not waiting for you to get over this
This emptiness and fear won't cease to exist
I just wish that you would come to see
That everything is the way it must be
And if I am wrong, Marianne
You may call me a liar
