Cinnamon Street

Roxette · Tourism [1992]

Growing up on Cinnamon Street.

Everywhere you look there

are lots of people to meet,

it's seven o'clock, the breakfast treat.



Now the schoolbus is here,

hurry up and grab a seat.

All the dreams are tiny ones,

another week has just begun

on Cinnamon Street.



There was a girl on Cinnamon Street,

the same age as me,

we shared the curiosity.

I won her heart cos I could play guitar.

She promised me heaven at once

and later all the stars.

But it all remained the same

cos things can never change

on Cinnamon Street.



I can hear my heartbeat

the very first time we made love,

life was a lazy rest in the sun.

Later we went dancing,

staying up all night long

- playing all our favourite songs,



Cinnamon songs: Oh oh na na na na na.



I say goodbye to Cinnamon Street.

Springtime is here and the air is so dry and sweet.

I walk in a cloud,

the smell of cinnamon bread,

it's in my blood since the day

I was born 'til I wake up...dead.

And the sun is smiling gently,

a funny shade of red, Cinnamon Street.



I still feel my heartbeat

the very first time we made love,

life was a lazy day in the sun.

Later we went dancing,

hanging out all night long

- singing all our favourite songs,



Cinnamon songs: Oh oh na na na na na na.
