Alesund

Lyrics for Alesund

No, this is not my guitar I'm bringing it to a friend No, I don't sing I'm only humming along Up here in the air I'm just mumbling at the clouds Wanting to be known While I pass the lonely hours I came down from the moon I saw you in the rain Laughing with some people Hair dripping down your face Your calm, hypnotic eyes Their Scandinavian glow I felt them like a flame Kindling my cold bones Tonight you were my muse As I builded and I strummed Trying not to drown In the helicopter above Alesund, Alesund From the crowd I heard You sing a pretty line Was it, "there's so much love That I wanna cry"? I thought about it long Had you repeat it in my ear I couldn't place it though But loved you being so close I should have played it then From the intro to the end When they offered me the stage At the bar when I didn't But I turned and walked Away from all the fun And back into the black, Seaside night of Alesund Alesund, Alesund Alesund, Alesund
