Norwegian Lovesong
Leaves' Eyes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I grew up by the sea
I played under the sun
Come to me come into my dreams
This is my light of life

Between the bluebells
Sits a girl with blond braids
A blue-eyed angel
With strawberry cheeks
The spell has bound me



I was living a dream
Norwegian homeland
My heart belongs to you

I climbed mountains so high
I discovered the deep
Long to be long, long to be part of this dream
This is where my heart beats
