LEAVES' EYES LYRICS

1. Legend Land

We headed west
To legend land
Up river to
Set feet on soil
Smell morning dew
On stubborn grass
Found grapes and vines
And sweet temptation
Keeps me alive
In my legend land I still feel how close
We are and will be
Somewhere inside me a piece you left
A piece of promise and hope

For you and me
Eternity
Appears to me
From Aasgard sent

Shining through
Any time barrier
Like a wild flower's will
To stay alive
To divide the stone
To break through

My legend land
A piece of promise and hope
My legend land

2. Skraelings

Solitary houses by the fjord
Rain is drifting in small water chains
Silent voices talking behind walls
Fire burning keeps us warm

Will they come my way?
Will this change my fate?
Do they ask for friendship?
Do they speak my language?
Will they come my way?

The new sound arises from their base
And now it's rowing from the south
Stay and swim back and forth
Skraelings are in search for the shore

Will they come my way?
Will this change my fate?
Do they ask for friendship?
Do they speak my language?
Will they come my way?

Usher men
In the boats
Holding spears
getting close
Swear struck, Ha!
Getting low, Ha!
I don't know
Lower the swords

Will they come my way?
Will this change my fate?
Do they ask for friendship?
Do they speak my language?
Will they come my way?

3. Viking's Word

Can a choice be chained
When their decision is made?
Are we taking any anger away?

I don't want to change (I don't want to change)
I don't want this to stay in your heart forever (In your heart)
But the law is law and will be (indeed)
And I gave a Viking's word

Faraway landscapes receive him with grace
In bright beauty and wonders
We find truth of me
I gave a Viking's word

A Viking's word

Can a man be chained?
Can a man be free?
Through some sad winters until the end comes swift

For I will return (For I will return)
I don't want this to stay in your heart (In your heart)
But the grandeur it strained for (Live on)
But I gave a Vikings word

Faraway landscapes receive him with grace
In bright beauty and wonders
We find truth of me
I gave my Viking's word

Where we were courting, embracing in peace
In hidden safety and freedom, we court without fear
A Vikings word.

Faraway landscapes receive him with grace
In bright beauty and wonders
We find truth of me
I gave a Viking's word

4. The Crossing

In the fields, bequeath the beach
I hold my shield before me
May the Gods be with me

North man determined not to fail
leave your foray behind
Northern wind in our sails
The crossing becomes our life

We dive to sea beyond the mist
The sun turns red before us
May the Gods be with us

North man determined not to fail
leave your foray behind
Northern wind in our sails
The crossing becomes our life

North man determined not to fail
leave your foray behind
Northern wind in our sails
The crossing becomes our life

Odin!

North man determined not to fail
leave your foray behind
Northern wind in our sails
The crossing becomes our life

North man determined not to fail
leave your foray behind
Northern wind in our sails
The crossing becomes our life

5. Lyset

Lyset er evig
Lyset er livet
Gjennom årtusener
Gjennom vegger

Avskjed fra dypet
Avskjed fra mørket
Sol, stjerner, måne
Evige fakler

Lyset er vakkert
Lyset er veien
Gjennom stormer
Gjennom kriger

[English translation:]

The light

The light is eternal
The light is the life
Through the millenniums
Through the walls

Farewell from the deep
Farewell from the dark
Sun, stars, moon
Eternal torches

The light is beautiful
The light is the way
Through the storms
Through the wars

6. Legend Land (Extended Version)

We headed west
To legend land
Up river to
Set feet on soil
Smell morning dew
on stubborn grass
Found grapes and vines
And sweet temptation

Keeps me alive (Keeps me alive)
In my legend land I still feel how close
We are and will be
Legend land a piece you left
A piece of promise and hope

For you and me
Eternity
Appears to me
From Asgard sent

Shining through
Any time barrier
Like a wild flowers will
To stay alive
To divide the stone
To break through

Legend land I still feel how close
We are and will be
Legend land a piece you left
A piece of promise and hope

In my dreams a Legend land
A piece of promise and hope
in my heart, keeps me alive

Legend land I still feel how close
We are and will be
Legend land a piece you left
A piece of promise and hope

Legend land
We are and will be
Legend land a piece you left
A piece of promise and hope

Legend land
We are and will be
Legend land a piece you left
A piece of promise and hope
