By the green river
Versions: #1I am sitting in a rocking chair
and remembering you
With the dull skates of my memory
I am skating to you
Into that summer which turned to autumn
A long, long time ago
And to my own figure languishing
In the burning of first love
There by the green river
Telling about my love
I said that the flowers ain't blooming in vain
Now we'll pick up our first one
Where have you been all these years
Have you remembered how I loved you then
When our path led to the river and to the river I said: hey
Where are you going, where did you take the tears
That I cried a long time ago
When I am walking alone along your shore, hey hey
A salty tear in my eye
I guess my memory brought it
When always in my memories
I lay down next to you
There by the green river
Telling about my love
I said that the flowers ain't blooming in vain
Now we'll pick up
our first one
Where have you been all these years
Have you remembered how I loved you then
When our path led to the river
and to the river I said hey, where are you going,
where did you take the tears
That I cried a long time ago
When I am walking alone along your shore, hey hey

The Guitar, The Sky and The Stars
Versions: #1Sadness plays with the black keys of the mind
even though it accidentally played a white one
With one mark I'll buy a guitar from the jukebox of the world
I hear the sound, the sound of it, it, it
no longer am I sad
When the guitar plays, you can't cry
When the guitar plays, you can't cry
A thousand gigs I already cheered up
in the backroom I tightened my string
Ever more tightly play as six
the strings of my guitar again and again
I broke one, soon another
yet I got to continue, the people, they just laughed
I got electricity for my electric guitar
just electricity, I need nothing more
I play the song to the end
above me the sky I'll make with its stars
When the guitar plays, you can't cry
When the guitar plays, you can't cry
So don't cry little girl in the corner of the bar
the playing of the guitar will give you its solace
It fills the space between the ears, there plays Juha Torvinen
plays by tapping partly
from the jukebox though, unfortunately
When the guitar plays, you can't cry
When the guitar plays, you can't cry
I got electricity for my electric guitar...

When you’re gone (away)
Versions: #3When you’re gone and I’m lying down alone I can hear my blood circulate.
I’m changing the tempo of this same old song.
My thoughts seem like crazed butterflies around a shining lamp
Circling around as if the night came out of its track to repeat itself.
Why can’t I achieve , I can’t get to achieve
That moment when I don’t live foolishly
When you are gone,
I see your face in that swamped mind of mine
In puddles where the moon reflects.
Let the sun rise again
Otherwise I’d want to fall asleep
The night bends like a bow, it snaps if I don’t get some sleep.
Why can’t I achieve , I can’t get to achieve
That moment when I don’t live foolishly.
When you are gone
The night is silent and allows me to hear myself
My thoughts a bad companion to wordless jokes
Why are you, just like myself, just a reflection of my own fears.
Someone shares you with me and I can’t cope with my debts.
Why can’t I achieve , I can’t get to achieve
That moment when I don’t live foolishly
When you are gone,
I see your face in that swamped mind of mine
In puddles where the moon reflects.
Let the sun rise again
Otherwise I’d want to fall asleep
The night bends like a bow, it snaps if I don’t get some sleep.
Why can’t I achieve , I can’t get to achieve
That moment when I don’t live foolishly

Every Day and Every Single Night (literal)
Versions: #4We have the world and its winds
I sing for you and you hear it
And still when near you I barely dare to breathe
I'd even drink poison for you*, I could shoe bears
Every day and every single night, I think about you
Every day and every single night that my heart beats
The world is beautiful, though I don't know**
if you know what I need
I feel I'm close to you even if I'm far away
That I would tell you, if you were mine maybe I could
Every day and every single night, I think about you
Every day and every single night that my heart beats
And when I wake up alone in the night screaming out your name
I know nothing will return the way it was
In the world, where do I go?***
What will I do there without you?
Some day by struggling I will blind my fear
The heart in my chest pounding, I will come to you and remark:
Every day and every single night, I think about you
Every day and every single night that my heart beats
And when I wake up alone in the night screaming out your name
I know nothing will return the way it was
Every day and every single night
Every day and every single night
