(Pål
Waaktaar)
With all
our goals and destinations...
Everything must be this way
Vague are hopes that try our patience
Listen now to what I say
Oh, lie down in darkness
I want you next to me
Oh, lie down in darkness
Here with me
All our trials and tribulations...
Will it ever make much sense
All these years
They disappear
They leave me here without defense
Oh, lie down in darkness
I want you next to me
Oh, lie down in darkness
Here with me
(Pål
Waaktaar/Magne Furuholmen)
We got
married on a cold mid-winter's morning
We said our lines
Then kissed
And it was over
Those pronouncements had such weight
I guess they made us hesitate
Hesitate
When she moved her hips
And swayed in my direction
I thought we could make it yet
And beat the isolation
But in that gentle dark
Man, we tore ourselves apart
Through fire and rain
Through wilderness and pain
Through the losses, through the gains
On love's roller coaster train
I call your name
Oh God...we used to laugh
Is the fire dying, babe
It hurts to ask
Let me hold you for awhile.
