LYRICS FROM "...AND THEN WE MARRIED THE WORLD"
SUPERLOVE VIBRATIONS (lyrics: S. Kobbeltvedt)
The night is making moves
And crystals fall like stars
Shimmering like disco lights
Now is the perfect time
To put away the fight
Get up your voice inside
Unbutton your shirt and let go
You and I
Summersky and butterflies
It's everywhere
Spreading superlove vibrations
Come with me
Listen to the band
They're only playing our songs
Defending you and I
So draw a smile
With your pretty mouth
Close your eyes and ride with the waves
Feel the floor
It's like a battleground
Loosen up your mind and let go
BLAME (lyrics: S. Kobbeltvedt)
How can you react like this
When all I meant was good
You know I didn't mean to make you cry
The choice you made was wrong
Focusing your energy
On things that only brought us down
Cover your face
Cover your ears
Try to make the words unheard
But you know it's time for you
To see the truth
I wish I could stay
And feel the way I used to feel
I wish you could see my face
Even though I'm far away
LEAVE (lyrics: S. Kobbeltvedt)
Bring down all the shades that blinded
Catch your breath for the first time
Listen when I'm silent
There's a sound that only you can hear
Halfclose your eyelids
Loosen your hair
Say goodbye to silverstars
There's life outside your window,
You know
You said you couldn't leave it
And free your senses
Something to belong to
She's taking hold of you
Used to dress your life in black
Hide your misery and show something good
See you know as you standing alone
This time will you let yourself fly
Don't be afraid to fall
TOO CLOSE (lyrics: S. Kobbeltvedt)
Early night
Walking through the city
Almost sleep
Lost in my thoughts
My quiet moments
Are just as strong
Needed to see if I still was free
If I still breathe the way I used to breathe
Don't come to close
I'm safe like this
I'm scared to loose myself if I go
Just stay
For a while
I couldn't tell you who I am
I haven't got the slightest idea
You say, I speak so little
Maybe 'cause you're too curious
Just needed to see if I still was free
If I still breathe the way I used to breathe
My thoughts will always float
Changing lines upon my face
Look at you
So easily amused
I wouldn't recognise
If it been summer outside
GLORIOUSLY ALONE (lyrics: S. Kobbeltvedt)
Before your face
I go and free myself
Only have to raise my eyes
And once again become the world
A feeling of joy
I could keep forever in me
No more thinking
No more pain
Sweet songs in my ears
Catching words I cannot see
I'm gloriously alone
Reaching out
For the first time
And I let go
Of words said who should be heard
I will learn to see their faces
Learn to be a part of it again
SECONDS (lyrics: S. Kobbeltvedt/chorus: Live H. Johanessen)
No song of yours came near me
From that day
Your smile didn't show as often
As it used to
So much to give
I thought you you couldn't see
I was the only one
To never get things right
Inside closed eyes
I draw a deeper breath
As if sometimes one have to learn over
To go on living
And maybe again
I need to be alone
I know you wouldn't release me
chorus
These seconds feel like hours
But yet as fast as light
This darkness is my building
The starlight not my home
Sunbeams will never reach me
In here I'm on my own
And you take my heart
Try to make it whole again
All you ever lived for
So incomplete
We'll never fade apart, you say
As you stand alone forever
bridge
And you take my heart
Try to make it whole again
Fall down
What do you feel
PICTURES (lyrics: K.A. Kleppe)
I save every moment
I'm sorry about the bad
But I don't regret
Things that made me sad before
Makes me happy today
Take a breath and step forward
All alone
A quiet audience
A tear on my microphone
I'm keeping pictures in my mind
Moments are easily gone
Save every moment of happiness
Let it float and then hit you
All these treasures
Seem to reach you anyhow
Let it float and then hit you
ALL I NEED TO KNOW (lyrics: S. Kobbeltvedt)
Almost gone
Racing into town
Did you suddenly see the light
God knows, you thrilled them too
But I won't change my way tonight
I know you think I'm so weak
But I've got things I'd like to say
All instant things are fading
And if I stay I'd fool myself
As you are
Glittered as you moved
And put on a new soul
Such a shame
Being so lost
In the thoughts of what you should be
RIGHT ON TIME (lyrics: K.A. Kleppe)
This next step's expression
In your eyes breaks
Before I leave
Learning towards to recover
Right on time
You get closer again
You, get closer and closer
Right on time
So beautiful
Old but new each time
Embrace the alone
You achieved but you won't believe
That you had it for a second
Before it slipped away
WEAK (lyrics: K.A. Kleppe)
Weak underneath
Yet so tall
Hold on to
Flying
Never too late
To be this small
So easy to stay
When you know what it takes to leave
No need to talk
Words are just colours in the dark
Love me
Never too late
To be this small |
