The Notebook Songtext
von Rasmus Roimela

I was a famous pop star, fifty million records sold
And I died in a plane crash at 101
In my wife′s arms, it was true love
No one screamed 'cause we were ready by then
Let′s say it was a dream, that's much less embarrassing
It was actually a game I played for literally one day
Got attached, I fell for her
It took me hours to feel like myself again

And coming back, I'm in this
Existential crisis


I don′t wanna grow old
Lose my hearing and my teeth
My bathroom′s covered in mold
I'll probably find it hard to breathe
I don′t wanna find you
Just to have to miss you when you die
So I hope I die first, no, I really don't know, that′s a lie
Can it be like The Notebook?
We'd go together, you and I
But without the Alzheimer′s
Of that, I'm fucking terrified
I don't wanna hurt you
But I′ll need you to survive the wait
If we never meet, I′ll fall apart before I'm 38

Now, I don′t need the penthouse or the Billboard number one
But I can't go never knowing how it feels to be in love
With someone like her, just like we were
Who do I hold on to when there′s nothing left?
The couples on the news are on their trips to Florida
I just stalk them through the screen like every other person now
But I still try to stay the one to see the full moon
'Cause I never could forget

Every touch in that room
Breaking every curfew


I don′t wanna grow old
Lose my hearing and my teeth
My bathroom's covered in mold
I'll probably find it hard to breathe
I don′t wanna find you
Just to have to miss you when you die
So I hope I die first, no, I really don′t know, that's a lie
Can it be like The Notebook?
We′d go together, you and I
But without the Alzheimer's
Of that, I′m fucking terrified
I don't wanna hurt you
But I′ll need you to survive the wait
If we never meet, I'll fall apart before I'm 38
