Verse 1 Every other Thursday Just after four Hasse left the factory And walked out the door Bag across his shoulder Ticket in his hand Rolling out of Källby Toward the sea and sand Pre-Chorus And somewhere after Hallsberg As the evening rolled along All the things that weighed upon him Didn't feel so strong Chorus It was the Thursday ride Down to Varberg by the sea A little time with Veronica And a little time to breathe It was the Thursday ride With the wind out on the bay He left his worries on the railway And watched them fade away Verse 2 Veronica was waiting Somewhere near the track Salt was in the cold air And the town was dressed in black They never needed big plans They never needed much A walk beside the water A drink, a meal, a touch Pre-Chorus No one had to fix things No one had to know They could talk until the morning Or just watch the weather blow Chorus It was the Thursday ride Down to Varberg by the sea A little time with Veronica And a little time to breathe It was the Thursday ride With the wind out on the bay He left his worries on the railway And watched them fade away Verse 3 Then Sunday came around again The train was heading home Same old towns outside the glass Same old ringing phone The worries hadn't left for good They waited where they lay But somehow they felt lighter After three nights by the bay Bridge Some people cross an ocean Some people climb a hill Hasse only needed A train ride and some time to stand still No answers and no schedule No reason to pretend Just the North Sea wind around him And the company of a friend Final Chorus It was the Thursday ride Down to Varberg by the sea A little time with Veronica And a little time to breathe It was the Thursday ride For three years, come what may And somewhere after Hallsberg The whole world slipped away Outro Every other Thursday Just after four He took the train to Varberg And left his worries at the door
