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
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
