Lyrics The Divine Comedy

The Divine Comedy

Sweden

I would like to live in Sweden

When my work is done

Where the snow lies crisp and even

'Neath the midnight sun

Safe and clean and green and modern

Bright and breezy—free and easy

Sweden—Sweden—Sweden—In Sweden

I am gonna live in Sweden

Please don't ask me why

For if I were to give a reason

It would be a lie

Tall and strong and blonde and blue-eyed

Pure and healthy, very wealthy

I'll grow wings and fly to Sweden

When my time is come

Then at last my eyes shall see them

Heroes every one

Ingmar Bergman

Henrik Ibsen

Karin Larrson

Nina Persson
