Stockholm Serenade

[Verse]
There's a roar from a thousand cc's
And to Johnny the message is clean
The words of the song are:
"Tonight you are free" and the music's strong
And sweet Marie
Waits with her dreams and her clouded eyes
And her rouge-laden cheeks
She yearns for the warmth of her Johnny's machine
Holding on tight into the night

[Chorus]
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade

[Verse]
She's dressed to kill
In her black leather jeans and her lilac shades
She's a big city queen who will play her part
With a shrug and a smile and a craving heart
And they ride
On their serpentine flight over tire-marked roads
Under shattered street lights until far way
The city looks like a fiery jewel
Ablaze in the night

[Chorus]
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade

[Instrumental bridge]

[Verse]
It's an eternity
From dusk to dawn before Johnny
Is back on his job with his welding torch
And Marie's gentle touch still alive on his arm
For the night it is long

[Chorus]
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade

[Chorus]
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade
In Stockholm
In a Stockholm serenade
