Janne Pahlsonn - Sundress Graveyards Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In grandmother's kitchen, the coffee gets cold
While stories of summer days unfold
Behind her smile, the truth she'd hide
Those village dances, the pain inside

[Chorus]
Dance with me, pretend it's alright
Accordion playing through the Nordic night
We'll spin and smile just like they did
Keep the family secrets safely hid
Oh, dance with me, let's play our part
While old wounds tear us apart

[Verse 2]
Pretty sundresses and perfect hair
No one mentions why grandpa's not there
Toast to peace while thunder rolls
Trading whispers for damaged souls
The neighbors smile and wave hello
But their eyes tell tales they'll never show

[Bridge]
In this town where nothing's wrong
We dance and sing the same old song
But underneath our polished shine
Runs a darker bloodline

[Chorus]
Dance with me, pretend it's alright
Accordion playing through the Nordic night
We'll spin and smile just like they did
Keep the family secrets safely hid
Oh, dance with me, let's play our part
While old wounds tear us apart

[Outro]
The music fades, the dancers go
Back to homes where memories grow
Another summer night slips away
While ghosts of yesterday still play
In grandmother's kitchen, the coffee gets cold
Some stories were never meant to be told
