Norwegian Boatsong lyrics

Lina takes her boat and rows

To places only Lina knows

And will not rest upon the oars

Before she reaches safer shores

The mist that rolls in from the sea

Beckons her, says "Come to me

I will hide you, make you whole

When mindless days disturb your soul"

Hidden skerries, razor rocks

Are better than the stumbling blocks

Living places in your way

And you must side-step every day

Lina, Lina why the tears

No need to weep for she who steers

Her boat to secret silver bays

Where hearts can heal and mend their ways

The weeping will be done by those

Who pace the shore and cannot know

For all the beacons that they burn

Whether Lina will return
