“I want to have my own moon, I can go to
Where I can forget that you left me
I can sit on my moon and do what I want
Where I stay until everything is alright.”

—  Kenneth Gärdestad

Jag vill ha en egen måne, jag kan åka till
Där jag kan glömma att du lämnat mig
Jag kan sitta på min måne och göra vad jag vill
Där stannar jag tills allting ordnat sig.
"Jag vill ha en egen måne", lyrics written by Kenneth
Song lyrics, With Ted Gärdestad, Undringar (1972)

Jag vill ha en egen måne, jag kan åka till Där jag kan glömma att du lämnat mig Jag kan sitta på min måne och göra vad jag vill Där stannar jag tills allting ordnat sig.
