I told you I had to work, but I really had to play
To remind myself of something that has long since gone away
Over days upon the days of not attending to my gaze
Like something slowly closing and drifting far away

I wanna walk through Oslo with nothing in my brain
Hear the distant pianos hiding in the rain
Oh, God, I want to be lonely again
And gone for a minute
And gone for a minute

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh

I will dance through this city with you in my eye
I don't think you'll miss me and that is alright
No map's a mystery, the bells start to soar
I can't send you photos, my battery's no more
So I'll dance through this city with you in my eye
I don't think you'll miss me and that is alright
No map's a mystery, the bells start to ring
I can't send you photos for I am just imagining

I wanna walk through Oslo with nothing in my brain
Hear the distant pianos hiding in the rain
Oh, God, I want to be lonely again
And gone for a minute
And gone for a minute
And gone for a minute
