Mama cried, litle daughter
Disappointed when she caught her
Sneakin' out the windowpane
End up at someone's party
Got too drunk and fucked somebody
Didn't even know his name

I grew a little older
Switched schools, it got colder
It's mostly gray in Stockholm city
Got into strangers' cars and
We'd go to secret bars and
Lie about my age to get in

So I walk myself down memory lane
I still hold on to all the joy and the pain
So I sing a little louder, get carried away
And I thank myself for who I became, mm

Big dreams, confidence
Tryna make the world make sense
Who to trust and who to brush aside?
I think about 'em sometimes
All my friends that went on separate paths
Wish them all the best along the way

So I walk myself down memory lane
I still hold on to all the joy and the pain
So I sing a little louder, get carried away
And I thank myself for who I became
Mm-mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm-mm, ooh

Wanna be the one to forgive
Be honest how I feel
Don't be too naive
But give second chances still
Push myself, but hold my head
So I walk myself down memory lane
I still hold on to all the joy and the pain

(Ooh) so I walk myself down memory lane
(Ooh) I still hold on to all the joy and the pain
(Ooh) so I sing a little louder, get carried away
And I thank myself for who I became, mm (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Mm-mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm-mm, ooh
