Bearing north

The sea belongs to me, But I never took for free,

I´ve seen how dreary days, comes and turns away!

Everyone these oceans like home for me are made,

And on storm, bewildered waters, I´ve never been afraid!

But beckoning in the north a sign breaks memories to come forth,

And it hurts my heart to know that I´m not home!

And if looking with closed eyes, I see Nordic forest pride,

And the place where I once was born!

A sign from my son, Like the northwind sent from home,

A dream to follow father, To what way he once begun!

Behold me now the elder, how the years have worn me down

I close my eyes and wonder, Where do these tears come from?

Now beckoning in the north a sign breaks memories to come forth,

And it hurts my heart to know that I´m not home!

And if looking with closed eyes, I see Nordic forest pride,

And the place where I once was born!

A yearning on the wing now brings me home,

A promise not to leave you left alone!

Bearing North - There you are,

I recall you my dear pa

Young and boldly minded, No dreams could be destroyed,

Of being broke and hungry, But enrichened by this life!

Now the youngster falls in/follow fury and recall by ancient time,

Adventures, turn to moments, sipping memories like wine!

Then beckoning in the north a sign breaks memories to come forth,

And it hurts my heart to know that I´m not home!

And if looking with closed eyes, I see Nordic forest pride,

And the place where I once was born!
