Edes kerran elämässä [English translation]

In the year '75 Anniina was the most goodlooking girl of the vocational school, or in the winter when she was still at school.

In '76 Anniina was already a woman providing for herself and made a scene raging in a restaurant during a pre-Christmas party.

Well, one should be allowed just once in a lifetime to slur and be drunk.

And one should just once in a lifetime be left alone to forget.

A year later Anniina was a woman providing for her family and made tabloids - for a reason of course.

Well, one should be allowed just once in a lifetime to take a dive in champagne.

And one should just once in a lifetime be left alone to coyly forget.

I'm telling you I live for you. I'll say it to you coyly when I come to you to stay.

Today Anniina is that woman providing for her husband as he - at his own fault - went bankrupt.

Well, one should be allowed just once in a lifetime to rest for a while.

And one should just once in a lifetime be left alone to forget.

Perhaps tomorrow Anniina is that woman who's given her best and perhaps the day after tomorrow she too will lie on life support.

Well, one should be allowed just once in a lifetime to die and think things over.

And one should just once in a lifetime be left alone to be oneself.

I'm telling you I live for you. I'll say it to you coyly when I come to you to stay.
