Kong Valemons Kamp

Kuitebjørn Kong Valemon

Was bewitched

By the troll hag

The fur of a white bear

Is now for him to wear

Once upon a time there was

A fair and gentle girl

Her lack of worth

A crime

She found solace

In a white bear's paws shone a golden wreath

In return for herself she received

Travelled far

And farther than far

Were living their lives

And every single year a child

Until the night

She saw that inside hid a human soul

He'd rush to the hag in the icy cold

When I wake up in the morning

I wonder will I

Ever see you again

Or was it our last goodbye

I face the truth when I see

There is nothing left

All I have is a sense of you lost on the bed

It's never too late to fly

At least it's worth a try

Wanted so badly for the past to be now

Running through the wild

Met a woman and a child

And twice again

Got scissors, a cloth and a flask on her way

And there past the hill

The Troll castle laid

The hag aimed a wedding of pride

For the girl's tools

She offered them three nights

Then he was deceived

But an artisan sent out a warning to him

Not even a needle could stop their meeting

Wanted so badly that nothing happened

Let's put it to an end

In the trap door there's a fell

The troll hag went straight through

And never came back

Brought the children and the gold

Off to their wedding they rode

And lived happily ever after

When I wake up

In the morning

I watch you asleep

Hold your body tight

Longing to feel your lips

I face the truth when I see

There is nothing left

Of the stormy past

But this I won't forget

Never too late to fly

At least it's worth a try
