If my shoes could walk to you I would be on my way
I would swim the Baltic Sea and climb the mountain range
Oh Helsinki I was meant for you my dear
Oh Helsinki when you’re gone I know I will wish you near
When you’re gone to the arctic circle there’s a fire that will keep you warm
And I’ll be here pushing pen to the paper counting days until you come home
Oh Helsinki I was meant for you my dear
Oh Helsinki when you’re gone I know I will wish you near
Oh here I go faster than the Vantah River flows and it takes me down
Oh here I fall like the white show that covers all in that northern town
Oh here I go faster than the Vantah River flows and it takes me down
Oh here I fall like the white show that covers all in that northern town
Oh Helsinki I was meant for you my dear
Oh Helsinki when you’re gone I know I will wish you near

When I was young I had a lover but she died one day
So I’ll never love another, no I’ll never love another the same
But I see her in the sky, near that river bend
She’s the moon and she is dressed in white
Oh night don’t end, no
I am growing old and my knees are growing weak
I miss the one I loved when I was young, she’s the only one for me
Oo oo oo oh oh oh ooo oo oo oh oh oh
With my worm’s eye view I am looking up to you
Praying with your birds eye you’re looking at me too
So I will make my way over tot eh great plains
‘Cause next to you I see heavens gates
So night don’t end, no night, no
I am growing old and my knees are growing weak
I miss the one I loved when I was young, she’s the only one for me
Oo oo oo oh oh oh ooo oo oo oh oh oh
I am growing old and my knees are growing weak
I miss the one I loved when I was young, she’s the only one for me
Oo oo oo oh oh oh ooo oo oo oh oh oh
I will run ‘cause the morning brings the sun
And I will lose you when the night is done
Oh I will run ‘cause the morning brings the sun
And I will lose you when the night is done
When the night is done

Ghosts

I was born beneath the mountain
Right on the valley floor
And I followed the sun into the desert
‘Cause I thought that she was the one
But I’ve never been more wrong
So I’ll go home
To rest my soul
And all my ghosts
They’ll be gone and I’ll be home
In autumn time, I took a chance by
Climbing the highest tree I could find
And that’s where I found you, by the horizon
You are the ocean blue
And like a river, I’ll run to you
And I’ll be home
To rest my soul
And all my ghosts
They’ll be gone and I’ll be home
If you’re looking for life
Just keep running to me
‘Cause you just might find it
where the river meets the sea
We’ll be home
And we’ll grow old
And there’ll be no more
Ghosts, ghosts, ghosts

Hot Air Balloon
03:19

|
Oh it’s a perfect day
Let’s find ourselves a hot air balloon and sail away
Over river bends
And as we fly above we’ll wave goodbye to our dear friends
‘Cause you are as sweet as honey
And I am falling into
This river that is running
And I think that I love you
Yes I think that I love you
Oh what can I say
I will meet you my dear where the forest meets the plains
And there I’ll be with you
And we’ll be flying high in our hot air balloon
‘Cause you are as sweet as honey
And I am falling into
This river that is running
And I think that I love you
Yes I think that I love you
‘Cause you are as sweet as honey
And I am falling into
This river that is running
And I think that I love you
Yes I think that I love you
Oh I think that I love you

Do you remember the tree?
The one we carved our names you plus me
We were young
That summer was good to us
Riding around on bikes kicking up the dust
We were young
Darlin’ as long as the sky above is still blue
Them I’m with you oh I’m with you
I will love you ‘til the day I die
Darlin’ I will never leave your side
Your side
So let’s go scrape our knees
Down by the river skipping stones ‘cause you and me
We are young, we are young
We’ll sit atop canyon walls
And watch the sun as it rises and watch as it falls
We are young
And darlin’ as long as the world is still spinning true
Then I’m with you oh I’m with you
I will love you ‘til the day I die
Darlin’ I will never leave your side
And I will hold you ‘til my final day
Promise me my love you’ll always stay
By my side
The summer breeze with your hair pulled back
Watching fire fall oh fire fall
I look at you as the night rolls in
‘cause we have it all, we have it all
I will love you ‘til the day I die
Darlin’ I will never leave your side
I will hold you ‘til my final day
Promise me my love you’ll always stay
By my side, by my side, by my side

The Meadow
04:02

I want to settle down south in the spring
Make a bed in the meadow and lay ‘til I dream, until I dream
I see you white house far from the road
Near the place where the forest grows
I stand alone when you come outside
I see your face for the first time
And I knew that I would find
I knew that I would find you my dear
All the roads that I have walked and walked
And now you’re standing here
And I will never let you go
I remember when we ran off young
Your daddy said no, but we were in love
There you stood in the church house, dressed in white
With dark braided hair, my beautiful bride
And I knew that I would find
I knew that I would find you my dear
All the roads that I have walked and walked
And now you’re standing here
And I will never let you go
No I will never let you go
Well I loved you ‘til I grew old and died
And I woke up in the meadow to my surprise
It was then I knew I could never go back
It was then I knew that you were real in a dream
That couldn’t last, no
And I don’t want to let you go
No I don’t want to let you go
But I will have to let go

Seven Years

In seven years you’ll be settled down
You’ll move away to a distant town
A couple of kids and a smile on your face
You won’t remember me, who was I anyways?
I can’t figure this out in my brain
I’ve been thinking of the way things change
I’m growing tired everyday
Oh I’m tired so I think I’ll stay
Yeah I’m tired so I think I’ll stay

I Never Let You Know
03:36

Baby a sun will rise in the morning
To show you where you’re supposed to be
And you’ll be on that early train, headed for the east
But I loved you, I just never let you know
And I love you, that’s why I need to let you go
So thanks for the chance to shine with you
I’ll remember all the bright times that we had
Baby you were always the moon shining and
But I loved you, I just never let you know
And I love you, that’s why I need to let you go
I love you, I just never let you know
And I love you, that’s why I need to let you go
I love you, I just never let you know

A Tree in Tennessee
03:21
|

|
On a road in Tennessee I was surrounded by fallen trees
But I saw one standing tall, and as I looked again I saw me
Confused by the sight, ‘cause I thought I might
Be ready to fall, fall, fall
So darlin’ won’t you tell me now
If that tree falls would it make a sound
‘Cause its leaves are dry and it’s growing old
And it soon will lie on the ground
Well I looked at it good
And there I stood
Ready to fall, fall, fall
Here I stand, here I am
Here I stand (like a tree in Tennessee)
Here I am (like a tree)
Like a tree in Tennessee

What is troubling you my dear
You spend your days
Wondering what’s on the other side
Oh how I wish you could stay
But youre packing bags
And I’ve cried too much for now
Don’t go my darlin’ don’t leave me behind
If you’re worried about dying you ain’t worried about life
Don’t go my darlin’ don’t leave me behind
If you’re worried about dying you ain’t worried about life
Let me tell you what I see
Through the window frame
Darlin’ you know you’re my everything
Oh where oh where is your faith
My bags are packed
And my dear I’m leaving town
Just don’t say
Don’t go my darlin’ don’t leave me behind
If you’re worried about dying you ain’t worried about life
Don’t go my darlin’ don’t leave me behind
If you’re worried about dying you ain’t worried about life
And I beg and I plead and I cry on my knees
When you say
Don’t go, don’t go
Don’t go my darlin’ don’t leave me behind
If you’re worried about dying you ain’t worried about life
Don’t go my darlin’ don’t leave me behind
If you’re worried about dying you ain’t worried about life
If you’re worried about dying you ain’t worried about life

Oh how I long for the wind, it was here and blew away
And like an anchor in the sand, I was forced to stay
Mmm
Oooo Ooo Don’t leavem e like this, don’t leave me like this

Oooo Ooo Don’t leave me like this, don’t leave me like this

Boy I’ll sweep you off your feet, when I am there to stay
And I’ll be yours to keep, oh you’ll never have to say
Mmm
