Sangtekst: Jens Lekman. How Much You Mean To Me.
I'm on my way to the USA, so give me your address
And I will send you the only white dove from New York City,
And call out your zip code on the Grand Canyon.
I know you don?t really read my letters,
The very thought of not knowing the exact location
Of the room where we shared our last kiss will eventually kill me,
?Cause it wasn?t just any kiss.
It wasn't like a first kiss or a second kiss or a millionth kiss...
But it was a perfect kiss.
It was a kiss we had been working on forever.
You don?t know how much you mean to me
I guess I should be ashamed,
I?ve already caused so much trouble...
I?d something going on with another girl
and then with another after that.
But I just couldn?t get you out of my head,
so I grew tired of them, you know,
I had a plan that involved you,
but maybe that?s not a very good idea,
'Cause I know you a have a guy now
and I know that you are happy living you life the way you do,
and I?m not here to ask you to change your life...
I guess I just wanna let you know how I feel about you.
I just wanna go on with my life, you know...
You don?t know how much you mean to me
I?m in Bloomington tonight, and...
I miss you.
It feels like all of the accomplishes means nothing,
Feels like my whole existence and history
Is being erased.
I opened up a sealed envelope
And it contains an eternity of memories that I never experienced,
So I can?t explain this in one sentence and I just keep going on...
You know, I had a plan that involved getting on with my life,
But maybe that?s not a very good idea.
I?m alone now.
I would be so afraid if someone put their arms around me...
You don't know how much you mean to me
And I will send you the only white dove from New York City,
And call out your zip code on the Grand Canyon.
I know you don?t really read my letters,
The very thought of not knowing the exact location
