De som följer min blogg vet att jag skriver låttexter, och en av de jag skriver ihop med är Rickard Linde, sångare i My Sweetest Punch.
My Sweetest Punch ska spela in en ny skiva framöver, i slutet av augusti närmare bestämt. Och något som känns hur coolt som helst är att två av låtarna på nya skivan är det jag som har skrivit texterna till!
Här är To someone called my father, som är en av dem.

To someone called my father
So she was
just a very young girl with a broken and lonely heart
She told me that you left right at the start
It was the end for her
So I was
just a very small boy with a broken and shattered dream
No father there at all. No, not even a gleam
I was alone without
I was alone without
without you
*
Everyday I keep on wondering why you had to leave
Everyday I keep on wondering what I should believe
It could have been so nice to know you, could have been so nice
And I look just like you, I look just like you do
*
So you were
someone from the past, just a picture and a name
Guess I was your burden and your secret shame
I tried so hard to hate
Waste of time
They called it a waste of time
everytime I thought of you
They told me let it go
but what could I do
You know I couldn´t hate
you know I couldn´t hate
not hate you
*
Everyday I keep on wondering why you had to leave
Everyday I keep on wondering what I should believe
It could have been so nice to know you, could have been so nice
And I look just like you, I look just like you do
