Tala Till Mig Utan Ord
Åsa Jinder Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Se min längtan ge mig mod
Vill våga tro
På de under som jag saknar
Led mig till din öppna famn
Jag hör ditt namn
Och hjärtat mitt vaknar

Du

Led mig till dig
Jag vill följa dina steg
Vart du går vill jag med

Du
Låt mig tvivla på den grund
Sorgen bygger
Tanken på att du ej finns
Blir till ord jag inte minns

Känn min saknad ge mig liv
Vill våga bli
Den jag anar i mitt hjärta
Rädslan rusar inom mig
Jag vill till dig
Och dämpa min smärta

Du
Led mig till dig
Jag vill följa dina steg
Vart du går vill jag med

Du
Låt mig tvivla på den grund
Sorgen bygger

Tanken på att du ej finns
Blir till ord jag inte minns
