The Longest Wait
Now sacrifice, In blood embrace this ship
Hand me the cup, Dull my senses, make my way
Lend me his sword and his axe, Longboat in silent sea
All Vikings' heads in bow, Allfather hear our plea
I take my place there by his side
All our duties be fulfilled now
Longest wait, we are complete
Over sea, the fire set us free
With the wind a whisper came
Your King has fallen
The days were long, Seasons came and went
I stood and wait, But nothing living came
The men who were too old
When you went are dead and gone
The youth who were too young
Are now prepared to go
I take my place there by his side
All our duties be fulfilled now
Longest wait, we are complete
Over sea, the fire set us free
With the wind a whisper came
Your King has fallen
Longest wait, we are complete
Over sea, the fire set us free
With the wind a whisper came
Your King has fallen
Longest wait, you dried my tears, Tore my soul
Fed up on fears, Great Jarl of Scania, Rise to Valhalla
Hand me the cup, Dull my senses, make my way
Lend me his sword and his axe, Longboat in silent sea
All Vikings' heads in bow, Allfather hear our plea
I take my place there by his side
All our duties be fulfilled now
Longest wait, we are complete
Over sea, the fire set us free
With the wind a whisper came
Your King has fallen
The days were long, Seasons came and went
I stood and wait, But nothing living came
The men who were too old
When you went are dead and gone
The youth who were too young
Are now prepared to go
I take my place there by his side
All our duties be fulfilled now
Longest wait, we are complete
Over sea, the fire set us free
With the wind a whisper came
Your King has fallen
Longest wait, we are complete
Over sea, the fire set us free
With the wind a whisper came
Your King has fallen
Longest wait, you dried my tears, Tore my soul
Fed up on fears, Great Jarl of Scania, Rise to Valhalla
