Innan du kom
Åsa Jinder Lyrics
Fanns där en himmel, en famn ovan molnen
Ett ljus över ängarnas vilda gräs
Fanns där ett glittrande hav i ett solsken
En trygg horisont bortom strand och näs
Innan du kom såg jag allt i ett dunkel
En vind var en vind, inget löfte om liv
Innan du kom fanns där inget av skönhet
I morgonens rodnad, i skymningens frid
Fanns där en slöja av skimrande stjärnor
En solkatt på trägolvets gamla själ
Fanns där ett löfte om ljus bakom sorgen
Ett liv bortom skuggor, säg fanns det där
Innan du kom såg jag allt i ett dunkel
En vind var en vind, inget löfte om liv
Innan du kom fanns där inget av skönhet
I morgonens rodnad, i skymningens frid
Jag bar ett ljus liksom gryningens milda
Och virvlande strömmar av lust till dig
Du gav mig mod att förlåta det vilda
Att ömsint med kärlek betrakta mig
Innan du kom såg jag allt i ett dunkel
En vind var en vind, inget löfte om liv
Innan du kom fanns där inget av skönhet
I morgonens rodnad, i skymningens frid
Ett ljus över ängarnas vilda gräs
Fanns där ett glittrande hav i ett solsken
En trygg horisont bortom strand och näs
Innan du kom såg jag allt i ett dunkel
En vind var en vind, inget löfte om liv
Innan du kom fanns där inget av skönhet
I morgonens rodnad, i skymningens frid
En solkatt på trägolvets gamla själ
Fanns där ett löfte om ljus bakom sorgen
Ett liv bortom skuggor, säg fanns det där
Innan du kom såg jag allt i ett dunkel
En vind var en vind, inget löfte om liv
Innan du kom fanns där inget av skönhet
I morgonens rodnad, i skymningens frid
Jag bar ett ljus liksom gryningens milda
Och virvlande strömmar av lust till dig
Du gav mig mod att förlåta det vilda
Att ömsint med kärlek betrakta mig
Innan du kom såg jag allt i ett dunkel
En vind var en vind, inget löfte om liv
Innan du kom fanns där inget av skönhet
I morgonens rodnad, i skymningens frid
