Maria Solheim was discovered by the Norwegian pianist Bengt Egil Hanssen while she was singing her own songs in a small village church far up north in Norway. She was 15 years old at that time and carried a hidden literary treasure. At the age of 16 Maria was working as a freelance journalist in the regional newspaper "Bladet Vesterålen". By this time she had allready won two national literary contests. From 1996-1999 she was involved with a group of poets lead by the Norwegian author Lars Saabye Christensen (Winner of "Nordisk Råds Litteraturpris" - Nordic literature price 2002). When Maria was 17, her friend Bengt Egil Hanssen presented her music for the Norwegian Record label "Kirkelig Kulturverksted". On the 7th of February 2001 the album "Barefoot" was released – all songs composed by Maria. Her second album "Behind closed doors" came one year later. Bengt Egil Hanssen produced both albums, which received great critics from the press as well as from the audience. At the current age of 22, Maria Solheim is an established artist. She has toured Europe, released 2 records in Germany, 1 record in Japan and has just released her third solo album "Frail" in Norway. Maria has established her self as one of the most interesting Norwegian female artist and songwriter. On her new album "Frail" she presents her self as being an artist in continuous progress and shows both integrity and courage. The well received debut album "Barefoot" (2001) was heavily influenced by some of Norway's most skilful studio musicians. While working on "Behind closed doors" Maria decided to get her own band and gathered some of Norway's young "up and coming" musicians. Maria has taken yet a step further on her new album "Frail". She has been playing and touring with her band for nearly 3 years and has found her own "musical room", which she has decorated quite originally. But she in not the only one doing the "decorating" of her third album. Maria is still playing with her band. In addition has started a collaboration with the young, noticed producer Emil Nikolaisen who hails from the glam –punk band Silver. This has created an ambient, but powerful expression. With a reference-point from two different musical worlds, Solheim and Nikolaisen have created an album that is both fresh, mellow and deeply rooted in the old singer-songwriter tradition. "My musical expression is all about relations, inspiration, communication and collaboration", Maria says. The musicians are: Tor Egil Kreken (bass), Torstein Lofthus (drums, percussion), Audun Haugeplass, David Wallumrød (keyboards) and Kjetil Steensnæs (guitar). "Frail" is recorded in an analogue studio.

Too many days The snow has killed Kissing me Take my heart away Mr. Iceman Pain Natural silence Restless girl Will you say Because I'm Dead
Barefoot
Barefoot standing in the spotlight Crowds are watching me Standing on flowers of nails And needles like grass I'm literally naked, they are gazing into my eyes Do i have anything to say I open up my mouth Small human raise your voice I hear, I, I hear, I I hear sentences in the night From a heart that's I hear, I, I hear, I From my heart that is broken From a heart that is mine I refuse to let my age decide Wether i am strong enough I refuse to let their expectations kill my love for them So here i stand, and i will stand like steel But i bend my head every morning Because this is not my own This is not my own I hear, I, I hear, I I hear sentences in the night From a heart that's I hear, I, I hear, I From my heart that is broken From a heart that is mine I hear, I, I hear, I I hear sentences in the night From a heart that's I hear, I, I hear, I... I can see them smiling But they look around And will turn away I wish that they would come Lady of my life
You say lady of my life Will you follow me You say lady of my life Take my hand How i enjoy every minute That i spend with you How i enjoy every word That you have written I somehow seem to forget Over and over That you are there But still You say lady of my life Will you follow me You say lady of my life Take my hand You say lady of my life You are everything You say lady of my life I love you There have been days There have been years Someone says it always will There have been moments Even though that i'm still young I've built walls with happiness Built walls with pain And with things beyond my understanding But through all of this You say...
Suspicion
I run along with my suspicion We are hand in hand smiling Kissing under trees and under stars Never let anybody into our house I married my suspicion last year We have been very happy every since If you want to talk to me Talk to my suspicion first I run along with my suspicion I am sorry, i am not allowed to believe I trust my suspicion no reason to go Behind the mask I married my suspicion last year We have been very happy every since If you want to talk to me Talk to my suspicion first I ran along with my suspicion Lately things have started to change My heart has become cold and quiet No one is calling, no one comes in I call to ask for separation Maybe it is better that we live apart For some time It's good to have some reservation I think i may have crossed the Line, though... Blue painting
Philharmonic sounds surrounding her head Noise can't be turned off Nothing can come through to her Fingers playing the cello, loud and strong Shut her thoughts in caves of music Shut her tears in caves of sound Shut her fears in caves of solutions They will come out Smile to the doorway Smile to the lamp Smile to everyone except The one who is smiling at you Steel is soft compared to her stubbornness At least the stubbornness of this kind Her face shows no sign of lightness Her face is cold and calm Smile to the doorway Smile to the lamp Smile to everyone except The one who is smiling at you Smile to everyone except The one you painted blue The one who died for you
Hidden poetry
She stole my sentence, stole my pen I tried my best to get it back again She hit me hard with a strong hand I made a grin and left the land I missed the train, i can't get home Got no more money on my phone I sleep outside and here i'll stay 'Cause once i'm here, won't go away Poetry written so no one can hear My nervous scream, my endless fear My dream All my words chosen carefully Will not stand in the way, will not jump In the sea Where is the hope, where is the truth My answers are drowned in the name of my youth I press my nose against the floor Won't do it again, never done it before My belly buttons starts to burn The greatest concern is what i earn Poetry written so no one can hear My nervous scream, my endless fear My dream Shake her hand And leave her Take her tongue and say her words Society can't be explained I'll leave it to the birds Poetry written so no one can hear My nervous scream, my endless fear My dream
Poison in my wine
There is poison in my wine There is cold snow in my shoes The are footprints on my window frame The dog is loose I scream but i can't hear a word I cry my eyes are filled My toes are fake My legs are thin I'll never win In vain i try to compose The greatest symphony The crowd who point their fingers The crowd who i hear laugh Are making my knees shiver Are making my hands week There is one little star on the sky When i sleep i can hear somebody cry Alone i can do nothing, alone i stand alone The last waltz
I cry while i leave the house Pictures are staring at me And they call me a trader I bend my head and i take my bags My mother an father are sleeping Next door, my sisters and brothers Would laugh at me if i told them The reason i have to escape like this All that i leave behind All the things i know i'll miss But this so very important to me But this so very important to me He has been waiting for me in the shadows I can see his face is relieved when i come He'd take my bags and he'd take my hand I'd turn my head and i'd look behind I know i will never go back The stones will cry
If i'm still the stones will cry If i'm still the trees will clap their hands If i'm still the mountains will roar If i'm still the ocean will whisper If i'm still the houses will cry out Instead of me Who can hide a secret reviled Who can stop a running fire Like a deer thirsting for water I long for more of you 18 degrees
From side to side Can't get no sleep The music just annoys Sentences on repeat Standing between the cold And the warm Opens and closes his eyes Standing between the dark And the light Grey an 18 degrees Wakes up but doesn't know if He slept Opens his eyes but doesn't know if They were closed Got a message on his answering machine Nobody's home No his not home I once heard a boy
I once heard a boy who said "god is asleep" I ripped off my clothes and i started to weep As i cried out and yelled and i stamped my feet To wake him up I once heard a girl who said that "god is dead" My soul started shaking and so did my head And i could not protest because i lost my voice And my world started to rumble I went to the doctor, i went to the shrink They gave me some pills, and they told me to think They suggested to me that i'd lay down and rest It would pass in year maybe two Well, i ran to the mountains, i climbed to the top The wind started blowing and lifted me up As i flew over the city i heard that my name Was spoken tenderly I went to the doctor, i went to the shrink They gave me some pills, and they told me to think They suggested to me that i'd lay down and rest It would pass in year maybe two I once heard a boy who said "god is asleep" I ripped of my clothes and i started to weep How to tell them about my believe Before she goes to bed
She's tired Just speaking with her eyes Before she goes to bed Not up some long conservation Her feet's a bit cold Her smile a bit old Has not been eating for a while Has not been drinking It's like she's captured in her body She just longs to get out Someday just run Run without thinking of her breath She just longs to let her thoughts fly And run with her white long dress Through long fields Brown and wild Like a child Like them
The last page
The girl writes on the last page And the pencil is nearly dry There can't be no mistakes 'Cause these words will be final He's been waiting for a letter for days The inspiration is gone, the wind flew away All the trees that once were green Are all ready for bed All the greats symphonies, all the great poems and books They've been sung, they've been said, they've been written And they have been read Close you eyes fold your hands i can see you are tired Let him wait just another day more He won't die, he won't cry still the night may be sad But it's better with nothing than bad The sun flirts with the ocean And soon a whole new day will rise Smile to the paper, lay down your hand I am sure he will understand Lick the envelope, put a stamp on the corner And I promise you that it won't be long Before the letter is finally there All the greats symphonies, all the great poems and books They've been sung, they've been said, they've been written And they have been read Close you eyes fold your hands i can see you are tired Let him wait just another day more He won't die, he won't cry still the night may be sad But it's better with nothing than bad... Arie for my king
Violin play my song These notes are made of tones Candle burn my flame This fire is made of water My eyes are now dry to see The road a head of me Ocean play my scream These notes are made of cream I have searched to find answers Ocean play my yell My throat is now clear to sing An arie for my king
Behind closed doors
2 minutes and 10 hours
In 2 minutes and 10 hours You will call me up And say that you have to leave me But i still don't know that So i look at the stars and i smile I'm happy In 2 minutes and 10 hours You will call me And that will be the last thing i heard from you But i still don't know that So i look at the stars and i smile I'm happy I look into the mirror and laugh You said that you had something important to say I picture myself In that long white dress In 2 minutes and 10 hours I will look the receiver And hear the song from you crying But i still don't know that So i look at balloons and i laugh I'm happy
Kingdom
I've got a place in the kingdom I can hear the noise of the hammer Voices of those who decorate my room I've got a place in the kingdom Like a bridge i am walking Waiting for my groom He is tall He is gracious I can hear the noise of the hammer I know i can recognize Voices of those who decorate my room top Hiding place
Where is my hiding place if not in thy castle Pain steams from my self minded heart Forrest of words i'm lost in your darkness Silence are you an enemy or a friend Reconsidering my constructions I have built up a tower I have built up a shelter With stones of words My mind's throwing words back at me I scream Where is the heart Where is he heart of man Where is the steadfast joy If not in thy presence Empty empty empty i burn down Oh consuming fire take me over To what i no longer understand Reconsidering my constructions I have built up a tower I have built up a shelter With stones of words I can hear you And i lay down my sword As i cry holy holy holy It's not a matter of
I don't say that it ain't an offer I don't say it won't give me pain It's not a matter of season I've given this away But the joy it brings is so much greater And the fear is so much less I don't say i'll always be smiling I don't say all days will be bright It's not a matter of season I've given this away But my heart can't stop the beating And my feet can't stop the dance
Beauty queen
Beauty queen Follow all the way under There is lightening and thunder At my road But i know you will find secrets lying All around when you're dying From yourself In my well Trust me i am right here behind you Shouting so you can know when to turn Trust me i have walked here before And i know every shore in this well You can dwell here Train under water
A tiny ray of light is sneaking up from under water Maybe a lonely fisherman can notice it sometimes My guess is that the light is gonna before somebody sees it The reason of this mystic thing is mad up in my mind Down in the dark i hear a song from the wagon 57 Hear dancing steps and polka tunes Men and women laugh Reflections in the water give impressions of some faces A castle built of gold and diamonds deep deep in the sand Train under water can someone see the light The reason of this celebration beats my understanding But i will not prefer another sight than just what's there The fisherman is fishing and the music has no ending Meanwhile there are seagulls swimming through the atmosphere Train under water can someone see the light The man who left his past
He is sure of his acts This time he will make it right Buys a ticket to the future Only happiness in sight Nothing is to stop him now But as the bus is leaving town He can see the houses crying over people he let down Free from all the expectations He is ready for a life He is done with situations that brought trouble Hate and strife But he cannot forget the memories The good times with his friends He once did think he knew them Until they broke down all his fences In the town there's people hurting People that can't understand Why the son of life and gladness is moving to another land There's no number they can call to No addresses left to write No goodbye hugs for children No more kisses as goodnight From the heavens i hear noises from the bottle counting tears And a hundred men are writing songs and poetry of fears Only time can heal a broken heart I once heard a wise man say But for the man who left his past Will time just send him further away Will he come back again Richard
Richard my little boy Bring back the memories Of how it was When i was young Richard my little boy Bring back the feeling Of how it was To sing a new song I watch an elderly woman on a bench in the park I see a doll on her lap i can hear her sing out loud Richard my little boy Bring back the memories Of how it was When i was young Richard my little friend Always listen carefully to your heart In all that you do Richard my little friend Take all my words And build up a world With letters from them Years have painted her hair and colored her face She has lost all her loved ones this park is her Sacred place Richard my little friend Take all my words And build up a world With letters from them You want to buy it instead
You hit the door with you head Searching for that which is good The bruises is part of the way You say it will give you a higher crown You hit the door with your head The noise is so loud every time Your head meets the steal Desire so much to get in They tell you the door is already open You may enter, you may come You hit the door with your head You want to buy it instead Behind closed doors
Just to get these thoughts in order This is not an easy life Still my burdens are cast over To a man which i call friend Have your way in me I cry out my soul screams Have your way in me Tired of confusions This power is so strong i know My feelings are quarreling with me again But I know that i am right Love that grips me Love that holds me closer than a man can ever do Love that grips me I whisper softly behind closed doors I love you Late at night
I see people turning off their lights in their houses It's late at night I hear whispers from outside my door Gentle feet Walking in silence So i won't wake up from my sleep But i hear them anyway Late at night I remember our sentences Said and pronounced in all different way Melodies inside my head Keeping me company Gentle feet Walking in silence So i won't wake up from my sleep But i hear them anyway Late at night
Frail
Too many days
Too many days I wake up with an aching Too many days have been wasted like sand Too many hours have gone by without notice Too many times i've let go of your hand Lay by the sea, bury all of your fear Lady lay Lay by the sea, you are wild, you are free You are daughter of mercy, daughter of strength All of the time I'm reminded of failures My tongue has bathed in spit from a thief (I am) dancing as close as I can to desire (I am) repeating my shortcomings loud to myself Lay by the sea, bury all of your fear Lady lay Lay by the sea, you are wild, you are free You are daughter of mercy, daughter of strength Too many years have been wasted like money Too many nights I wake up with a cry Too many years have gone by without notice Too many times I have wanted to die Lay by the sea, bury all of your fear Lady lay Lay by the sea, you are wild, you are free You are daughter of mercy, daughter of strength The snow has killed
You promised to give me a garden You promised to give me a song But the snow has killed all the flowers And the winter seems to be long It's Christmas time and you're hurting me It's Christmas time and you're hurting me It's Christmas time and you're hurting me Again You gave me your word of protection You gave me your word and a smile While the darkness covered our faces, The morning discovered the ice It's Christmas time and you're hurting me It's Christmas time and you're hurting me It's Christmas time and you're hurting me Again Kissing me
You beside me I have tried to hide all I can hide Afraid you'll see me And be scared by all the thoughts i've tied Reconciliation My pride dying every day Days of wondering Confusion playing all it's games You, holding me I am holding my breath in dismay You, kissing me Kissing me Slowly melting water, Clean the dirt and clean some space Right beside me I can smell vibrations from your face You, holding me I am holding my breath frightfully You, kissing me Kissing me You, holding me I am holding my breath frightfully You, kissing me Kissing me Take my heart away
Winter skies I felt nice Went to dance You asked me for romance I fell down To the ground You said Don't be afraid I'm here to stay Take my heart away Clouds were thick I got panic All my thoughts Are influenced by fear Logic failed I am nailed Warm hand come And break my chains today Take my heart away Take my heart I'm lost Please show a way Mr. Iceman
I will love you Mr. Iceman Even though I know you do not want my love at all I will love you Mr. Iceman Even though you say you do not need someone who cares You know i've seen your bitter smile You know i've seen your shaking heart behind that suit You know I know about your mother I will love you Mr. Iceman Even though I know you do not want my love at all You know i've seen your tears at night You know i've seen your shaking heart behind that suit You know I know of all your troubles Pain
I've got pain in my body But I'm sure it will pass I've got pain in my body But I'm sure it will pass Now, my father died of a deadly disease And my mother died of a deadly disease I've got pain in my body But I'm sure it will pass I've got pain in my body I don't need any doctor, no I've got pain in my body I don't need any healer Now, my sister died of a deadly disease And my brother died of a deadly disease I've got pain in my body But I'm sure it will pass But I'm sure it will pass at last Natural silence
Natural silence surrounding my words I am longing for more and you open your hand As I grab what you give me I am covered in blood Simple song, are you simple And I laugh while I'm dancing And I cry while I kneel Restless girl
She's addicted to her own pain She's been listening to that song so many times Her tears, her only drink To herself she's a stranger Restless girl You've got a home but you do not see it Restless girl What is your fear Her mind is full of anger Still there's no one to blame Her hate is getting stronger So, she yells and curses his name Restless girl You've got a home but you do not see it Restless girl What is your fear Restless girl You've got a home but you do not see it Restless girl What is your fear The blue tones are calling you again and you follow The voices are calling you again and you listen to them They tell you how weak you are And you, you… you give them right Restless girl You've got a home but you do not see it Restless girl What is your fear Will you say
Will you say you recognize my voice Will you say you have enjoyed our conversations Will you say you recognize my voice Will you take my hand, will we rejoice On that day, when we meet Will you hug me and say I have heard you I have heard you pray Will you recognize my voice Will you say Oh that is her Will you say I have been longing to see you face to face I have seen you And although you've made mistakes I have heard you when you pray I have heard you pray Because I'm dead
I want no fire on my gown I want to run for golden crown Not that the crown is final goal But final rest for tired soul
Will There Be Spring
Moonlight Fill me with moonlight Fill me with sunshine I've not been sleeping for days Tell me my name now Tell me my address I do not know who I am
Wildest day Hope is low When a new day comes Heavy breathing, arms are numb Push my mouth to smile Sun is up and I am down Crawling in a sphere of sound Painting on my soul Cover up my wholes Finding reasons to give in Is there still a crown to win Do I have the faith Walls of noise are caving in Cars and trucks and waves of sin I'm stealing thoughts to think Sweet and sound and fine is he Who knows the dark, knows my song He reaches down he reaches down And with his love I'll find my way Through deepest dark And wildest day Yes, with his love Yes, with his love Yes, with his love I'll find my way I'll find my way
Where Do People Go Tell me how it is I know how it is I just want to know Where do people go Tell me how it works You will soon find out I just need to see What makes people free Wisdom comes from you (Wisdom comes from you) Wisdom comes from you (Wisdom comes from you) Wisdom comes from Wisdom comes from you
All My Thoughts I'm not sure If I dare to think of you I don't know you Still you have all my thoughts At the moment What do you think It's all wondering and dreams I'm afraid to give too much Hope too much But I'm longing Is it true That behind all this beauty is a lie They try to convince me Is it true That behind all this beauty is a lie Is it true That behind all this beauty is a lie They try to convince me Is it true That behind all this beauty is a lie I'm not sure If I dare to think of you I don't know you I don't know you
Ocean needs water Afraid to break a hidden rule That would make you believe that I don't love you anymore Afraid to do some unconscious thing That would make you believe that I don't trust you anymore But I need you Like the forest needs water to live Yes I need you Like the forest needs water to live I need you to live Afraid to break a hidden rule That would make you believe that I don't love you anymore Afraid to do some unconscious things That would make you believe that I don't need you anymore But I need you Like the forest needs water to live And I need you Like the ocean needs water to stay I need you to stay I need you to stay Need you to stay
Different Seasons Bye I'm telling this good-bye Bye I'm too tired to cry I know it's only an illusion They say it's only an illusion I guess it's only an illusion They say it's only an illusion Try It's not too late to try Try My fear has got to die I know it's only an illusion They say it's only an illusion I guess it's only an illusion They say it's only an illusion
Take my heart away revisited
Winter skies I felt nice Went to dance You asked me for romance I fell down To the ground You said Don't be afraid I'm here to stay Take my heart Take my heart away Clouds were thick I got panic All my thoughts Are influenced by fear Logic failed I am nailed Warm hand come And break my chains today Take my heart Take my heart away Take my heart I'm lost Please show a way
Burn the books Burn the books They are telling me too many things Got the looks I guess that's all that matters Give me space I have already all i can get More and more, more and more And more Find my star I've looked at it for answers I've got scars From people telling me directions Bury me Hide me from my future Want to have Those camel knees I've heard of Heard of Pray with me Pray for better mornings Hard to fill All my expectations Cry with me Cry for the forgiveness From the Only One The Only One can give us Peace
Juice
I'm writing this while waiting for you feet to come back home The summer is soon knocking on my door and I'm alone You say you believe in future, happiness and pain Sun and rain You laugh and smile while you mess up my brain I try to stay as stable as I can when I'm with you I talk about these normal things that normal people do You say you are tired of the politics and news "Give me juice" But I've only got milk, so I'm confused Imagining and awakening Hours before the "I do" On my wedding day Imagining and awakening Hours before the "I do" Oh... I'm writing this while waiting for you feet to come back home The summer is soon knocking on my door and I'm alone You say you believe in future, happiness and pain Sun and rain You laugh and smile while you mess up my brain You – Every Morning I long to be with you every morning Building a home for your children and mine Walking through deep, dark, wild forest together With a good shepherd who's leading the way Trying to find a good reason to leave you Giving my self a fair chance to regret But you unarm me with your gentle stories Telling me truth while you took me to bed Walking through deep, dark, wild forest together With a good shepherd who's leading the way
Mountain song
Even the wildest at heart will Sleep at the sound of your voice Mountains and stones will all tremble Melting a river of gold I do not know all your wonders I even forget who you are But when my days are all over I hope to see all the things I've been told Even the wildest at heart will Sleep at the sound of your voice Mountains and stones will all tremble Melting a river of gold I do not know all your wonders I even forget who you are But when my days are all over I hope to see all the things I've been told
In the deep Sally Song Diving deep into the deep blue emotions Trying to swim my way back to the shore Where I used to dance before I cannot quite recall what led me here It is all a blur, it's all to near I hope time will make it clear Oh, won't you come, O Sally Won't you take me down Into the morning valley To the break of dawn, Oh won't you sing, O Sally Through the winter storms Call on my name and tell me That there's still hope for drunken souls The water is muddy, my vision unclear And my mixed emotions are making it hard to steer There's wind from the east, and breeze from the south My compass is spinning, I am drifting further out My voice is too weak to shout Somewhere along the way I lost all courage to stand up for something While I swim I start to sing My voice is low; it's more like humming Oh, won't you come, O Sally Won't you take me down Into the morning valley To the break of dawn, Oh won't you sing, O Sally Through the winter storms Call on my name and tell me That there's still hope for drunken souls Run Away It scares me to let go of fear It's become a friend that I hold dear And no one knows me more than him Or so it seems, or so it seems All though I cry and hide my face I feel secure in his embrace He loves me so He needs me so Or so it seems or so it seems Run away, run away From all your sadness With a smile on your face Run from all your sadness 2x I do not like the changing winds They are destroying things Destroying things Afraid to test my growing wings, Will they carry me? All though I know unchanging love I do not dare to trust its glow Will it help me if my fear just grows Run away, run away From all your sadness With a smile on your face Run from all your sadness 2x When Grace Left Town When Grace left town They buried all her clothes They burned her house to ruins When Grace left town When Grace left town Her daughters' disappeared Their names were never mentioned When Grace left town When Grace left town When Grace left town The leaves began to fall The whole town started trembling When Grace left town It's such a shame And we are all to blame We knew but never fought it When Grace left town When Grace left town And my heart was broken Yes my heart was broken True words never spoken And my heart was broken When Grace left town They buried all her clothes They burned her house to ruins When Grace left town When Grace left town Home Is Where The Heart Is I followed you down to the station It was so sad to see you leave You embraced me and said "Don't be sorry, there is a time for everything" Oh, don't go please stay Don't leave me here alone Oh, please stay, don't go Don't leave me here alone 'Cause our time has just begun The train left a minute to early It was to late to change your mind Though I knew you'd be back I was crying The last thing I saw was your smile Oh, don't go please stay Don't leave me here alone Oh, please stay, don't go Don't leave me here alone 'Cause our time has just begun Yes our time has just begun Home is where the heart is Home is where the heart is Home is where the heart is And our time has just begun Song Of Forgotten Songs This is a song of forgotten times Years that came and went to fast Moments we did not use when time was there Moments we did not know we had This is a song of forgotten tears People we did not care to see Lying helpless by the road, ignored by men Who knew but did not want to know This is a song of forgotten words Songs we did not dare to sing Melodies appearing in our deepest sleep Wake me up and lead me to the sound The Break Up Sun is down I stare into the mirror Your words still ringing in my ears All that we have is sorrow I'm leaving you first thing tomorrow Try to sleep, I hear you breath You're still next to me, but not for long Try to reason, but it's all unclear to me So surreal All that we have is sorrow You are leaving me first thing tomorrow It seems it's out of my hands You've made your decision You want to be free Where did we go wrong I thought that I knew you I thought we were fine Before the bell wakes you up I kiss you one last time All that we have is sorrow You're leaving me first thing tomorrow Tomorrow In the deep In the very deep of the sea Fish are swimming gently beside me Showing me the riddles of life Empty cans and bottles are sleeping in the night Sinking like a bag of stones Music like I've never heard Streaming from the cones Octopus caressing me My lungs are filled up I'm free Darkness fall Darkness fall, surround me Darkness fall In the very deep of the sea Fish are swimming gently beside me Showing me the riddles of life Empty cans and bottles are sleeping in the night Darkness fall Darkness fall, surround me Darkness fall I'm diving, diving, diving Can I see you Again The first snow has fallen The temperature is rising Because you called me And asked me "come stay as a friend" I pack my belongings and book the train ticket And I ask in the mirror "will I be back again?" The first time we met was a long time ago You told me to trust you, and I did But I was too young and I left you alone I moved to the city, I found a new life there I travelled and travelled and travelled again But deep in my heart you were never forgotten The warmth from your body The prints from your hand I guess I thought it was all lost I heard you found a new friend But I gained new hope in your words "Can I see you again?" I try to think of the right words to say As the train leads me closer to the place I want to stay The present is clear, and the past is forgotten As you hold me and kiss me and hold me again And I whisper through tears "will you ever forgive me" In your smile I can read I am more than a friend. Dance With Me It's a clear and bright sweet morning I put flowers in a vase You come in you smile and plant A kiss on my face We've been longing for this moment To finally have some time alone We have signed the forms and papers It's written in stone So dance, dance, dance with me honey Tango if you can I am yours and you are mine Till the end of time Even though I know there will be Harder times and flying stones I will keep you in my heart You're never alone Be Well Deep in your heart and your soul Be well, be well Your treasure is worth more than gold Be well, be well The winter is cold and the night Has taken it's toll on us all I can not ask you for more Be well, be well Sinners and killers and whores Be well, be well We all have a ghost in our soul Be well, be well Know that all hope is not lost Know that the lion just growls He can not bite you no more Be well, be well The Hill I know my story has begun Into the magic land I run I know that I will never find My peace without the highest Son Why oh why oh why should I Even take the chance to try My tears will never give me rest Until my head sleeps at his chest The ice has covered hands and feet I melt as I can feel the heat I try to hide I'm scared to feel This love that force my knees to kneel Why oh why oh why should I Even take the chance to try My tears will never give me rest Until my head sleeps at his chest
Stories of New Mornings
Heart, Heart Heart, heart, where are you You used to be warmer My heart, heart, where are you You used to be louder Why is all so cold Is it because I am getting older Heart, heart, where are you I cannot feel your beat Thoughts, thoughts, where are you You used to be clearer My thoughts, thoughts, where are you You used to be nearer to me Why is all so blurry So colorless and furry Soul, soul, where are you It used to be Nicer to be with me You Have Shaken Me Shoulder to shoulder in the dark You've shaken me Everything is silent, no one talks You've shaken me Finding myself in my weakest spot Try all I can But it's not enough Lost in emotions I am not that tough You've shaken me Fighting to regain my heart You're breaking me Back to love and back to start You're breaking me Clinging to every word you say Crying and wishing myself away Losing my strength and it's not ok You're breaking me Underneath this massive mountain Lies a promise A storm is coming Silence numbing You see through me From the darkness you withdrew me Bones may be broken But my heart is whole You've taken me You're giving me wings and trust my soul You've taken me I whisper my words in the morning rain “All that we've built will not be in vain” You have my heart Though I cause you pain And you've taken me Emelie Smile, smile, smile The sky brightens up when your teeth are showing Smile, smile, smile Emelie You found yourself in a storm Not knowing how to stay warm Caught up in overwhelming sadness Wind blowing strong in the trees Water was up to your knees Quarreled your way through fields of madness Smile smile smile The sky brightens up when your teeth are showing Smile smile smile Emelie Then in your sleep you could hear Somebody whispering in your ear Telling you stories of new mornings I know the winter was long But now the birds are singing songs of springtime And the bells chime Smile smile smile The sky brightens up when your teeth are showing Smile smile smile The music won't stop and your eyes are glowing I know the road has been narrow and steep You have climbed to the top And you conquered the deep So smile smile smile The sky brightens up when your teeth are showing Smile, smile, smile, Emelie Music and love She was only fifteen And she wore her father's old shirt Met a man who could dream Told her stories of a world she'd never seen Music and love Someone above Told her to listen well She was only sixteen And she wore her sister's old jeans Met a man who could cry It made her sleep disappear from the night Music and love Someone above Told her to listen well She was only seventeen And she bought some clothes of her own Met a man who could kiss Early mornings she climbed up the trees Music and love Silence above Silence above Music and love Silence above Silence above I Wish I were in a Band I wish I were in a band Playing my songs And then they would understand How they were wrong And I would smile, and I would sing And would not care about a thing Oh, I wish I were in a band I wish people said I was Humble and good And that I gave hope to the misunderstood And I would smile, and I would sing And would not care about a thing Oh, I wish I were in a band And I would smile, and I would sing And would not care about a thing Oh, I wish I were in a band Oh, I wish I were heaven sent Summer came with you I am a careful soul I've built protective walls Don't climb the mountains high Don't like to say goodbye You knocked upon my door You walked across the floor No questions asked about my past I let you in Oh, you came through the fortress I had made You sang a serenade About love Oh, I can't help but dance You made things new The summer came with you I thought I could not change I've always been the same I never took a chance to lose it all You brought the flowers in And kissed me on my chin No questions asked about my past I let you in Oh, you came through the fortress I had made You sang a serenade About love Oh, I can't help but dance You made things new The summer came with you Everything's brighter Everything's lighter The summer came with you Oh, I can't help but dance You made things new The summer came with you Antidote If I were with you in that dark room now I would hold your hand If I were with you in that dark room now I would try to understand You have tried, baby You have tried You have tried, baby You have tried They say love is patient They say love is blind If I were with you in that dark room now If I were with you in that dark room now I would stroke your hair And if you could hear me in that dark room now I would sing you a prayer You have tried, baby You have tried You have tried, baby You have tried They say love is patient They say love is blind. If I were with you in that dark room now Some say it's easy, but you know it's true That no one has battled and fought this like you Shame can be numbing and poison your heart I'm on your side You have tried, baby You have tried. You have tried, baby You have tried They say love is patient They say love is kind If I were with you in that dark room now The Search I'm in search of something I might never find Still the hunger drives me Voices in my mind Give me a summer Give me a winter Give me some time to grow When the morning wakes me When I go to sleep When I touch the surface When I sink to deep Give me a summer, give me a winter Give me some time, and I know I'll get by When the weight of the world seems too heavy to hold Give me some time, give me some time to grow I will go on I know it's been said before, written in songs I will just add a tone to that All that I need Is an ocean of caring thoughts, woodland of trust Is it too much to ask of us Give me a summer Mornings with you (Feat. Trygve Skaug)
