Jeg så dig første gang på jobbet
I saw you for the first time at work
En helt almindelig morgenstund
On a completely ordinary morning
Men noget vågned' inde i mig
But something awakened inside me
En følelse, jeg ikke kendte dengang
A feeling I didn't know back then
Jeg vidste ikke, hvad det var
I didn't know what it was
Eller hvor mit hjerte ville hen
Or where my heart would go
Men når jeg tænker tilbage nu
But when I look back now
Så ville jeg møde dig igen
I would meet you again
Tanja, du er dejlig
Tanja, you are lovely
Du betyder mer', end du tror
You mean more than you think
Der er så meget, jeg vil sige
There is so much I want to say
Men det rækker ikke med et ord
But a single word isn't enough
Tanja, du er dejlig
Tanja, you are lovely
Du har en plads i hjertet mit
You have a place in my heart
Og hvis du kunne se dig selv
And if you could see yourself
Sådan som jeg ser dig, lidt for lidt
The way I see you, little by little
Årene er gået siden dengang
Years have passed since then
Men du har aldrig været langt væk
But you have never been far away
Du har altid haft en plads i mig
You have always had a place in me
En følelse, der aldrig helt forsvandt
A feeling that never quite disappeared
Jeg har altid haft et øje på dig
I've always had an eye on you
Og det har jeg stadig den dag i dag
And I still do to this day
For der er noget særligt ved dig
Because there's something special about you
Som gør, at jeg dig aldrig glemmer
That makes me never forget you
Tanja, du er dejlig
Tanja, you are lovely
Du betyder mer', end du tror
You mean more than you think
Der er så meget, jeg vil sige
There is so much I want to say
Men det rækker ikke med et ord
But a single word isn't enough
Tanja, du er dejlig
Tanja, you are lovely
Du har en plads i hjertet mit
You have a place in my heart
Og hvis du kunne se dig selv
And if you could see yourself
Sådan som jeg ser dig, lidt for lidt
The way I see you, little by little
Dit smil har altid betaget mig
Your smile has always captivated me
Det er det smukkeste, jeg ved
It's the most beautiful thing I know
Det lyser op i alt omkring mig
It lights up everything around me
Og fylder mit hjerte med fred
And fills my heart with peace
Måske var vejen lang til nu
Maybe the road to now was long
Måske var tiden ikke klar
Maybe the time wasn't right
Men når jeg står her tæt på dig
But when I stand here close to you
Føles det, som om vi fandt hinanden
It feels like we found each other
Da turen gik til Jylland
When the trip went to Jutland
Sad du lige ved siden af mig
You sat right next to me
Den plads i bilen føltes rigtig
That spot in the car felt right
Jeg ville ønske, jeg sad dér med dig igen
I wish I was sitting there with you again
For nogle øjeblikke bliver hos én
Because some moments stay with you
Længe efter turen er forbi
Long after the trip is over
Og hvis jeg selv måtte vælge
And if I could choose myself
Var der mange flere ture med dig
There would be many more trips with you
Tanja, du er dejlig
Tanja, you are lovely
Du betyder mer', end du tror
You mean more than you think
Der er så meget, jeg vil sige
There is so much I want to say
Men det rækker ikke med et ord
But a single word isn't enough
Tanja, du er dejlig
Tanja, you are lovely
Du har en plads i hjertet mit
You have a place in my heart
Og hvis du kunne se dig selv
And if you could see yourself
Sådan som jeg ser dig, lidt for lidt
The way I see you, little by little
Jeg fik lidt tid med dig på Tinderbox
I got a little time with you at Tinderbox
Et øjeblik, jeg gemmer på
A moment I cherish
Men jeg savner flere stunder sammen
But I miss more moments together
Flere minder, vi kan bygge på
More memories we can build upon
Jeg ønsker, du kan se mig
I wish you could see me
Sådan som jeg ser på dig
The way I look at you
For der er noget, jeg håber på
Because there's something I hope for
Måske en vej for dig og mig
Maybe a path for you and me
Når livet skifter spor
When life changes course
Som det sommetider gør
As it sometimes does
Så håber jeg at gå med dig
Then I hope to walk with you
Og være den, du søger
And be the one you seek
Jeg vil gerne holde din hånd
I want to hold your hand
Ikke bare i en drøm
Not just in a dream
Men stå ved din side i livet
But stand by your side in life
Og vise dig, hvad du betyder for mig
And show you what you mean to me
Tanja, du er dejlig
Tanja, you are lovely
Du betyder mer', end du tror
You mean more than you think
Der er så meget, je
There is so much I want to say
