I'm leaving today I keep telling myself that I have to stray But I end up not getting that far Only leaving my flat To go to the nearest bar I've got the Bergen blues I don't want to leave, don't want to stay Wanna be home and far away at the same time My hometown is my favorite town So why does it bring me down? I guess I got the, guess I got the, guess I got the Bergen blues I can leave tomorrow I keep telling myself that There's no sorrow That a whiskey or six can't heal Going back to my flat Drunk enough to not feel I've got the Bergen blues I don't want to leave, don't want to stay Wanna be home and far away at the same time My hometown is my favorite town So why does it bring me down? I guess I got the, guess I got the, guess I got the Bergen blues I can leave next week I keep telling myself that I have to seek What's beyond these mountains so high But when the moment arrives It's too hard to say goodbye I've got the Bergen blues I don't want to leave, I don't want to stay My hometown is my favorite town So why does it bring me down? I guess I got the, guess I got the, guess I got the Bergen blues I can leave next month Or maybe next year I keep telling myself that all I need is right here And that all the new places will have the same kind of faces That I'm tired of seeing everyday But I know that I would miss them if I moved away I've got the Bergen blues I don't want to leave, don't want to stay Wanna be home and far away at the same time My hometown is my favorite town So why does it bring me down? I guess I got the, guess I got the, guess I got the Bergen blues
