The dawn breaks on a spring morn
Green buds burst anew
A child is born
His first cry is heard

Summer comes and flowers bloom
Green leaves spread aloft
A child grows and wanders far
All the world awaits him

Autumn brings the falling leaves
They brown and flutter down
The child ages into man
His hair turns grey, his back is stooped

Winter shows its icy teeth
Wind blows the clouds away
The man has had his time at last
And to the earth his ashes go

You have lost a loved one
and the pain burns your heart
Your life is empty as the tears flow

You yearn to hold them one more time
You crave to hear their voice again
and your soul sinks with emptiness


They look down on you from up above
as they rest upon a gentle breeze
until the time comes when you meet again

Live with passion and know no fear,
Love your land and all that’s dear.
The cry of the Viking, as he wields his sword
Chills the blood of the enemy horde.

Love your woman and your child,
Wield your axe so fierce and wild
To protect them both as you should
You share their love and their blood

Drink and feast when the time is right
Work the day and sleep the night
The time will come all too soon
Valhalla’s gates will surely loom

In Odin’s great hall in heavens on high
You will toast and drink with a twinkling eye
To a life you lived with all your heart
And with no regrets as you did depart

Look into the eyes of a child
and see the purest love
Look into the soul of a child
see the blessings from above

Where did we stray
As we grew old
To lose that simple
Love untold?

The past has gone
Like a heap of ashes
It blew away in the wind

Tomorrow may not come
It may only be a dream
Will it ever come to be?

All I have is now
The very precious now
Too good to waste

If you have true passion
you cannot be stopped
True passion that burns
like acid through paper

Nothing can halt you
you will succeed
But the passion must burn
with volcano heat

So light the fire
and fan the flames
Look to your future
and all will be yours

If I could look through her eyes
Would I see a different world?
If I could feel her pain
Would I be a different man?

If I could feel her passion
Would I be more humble?
If I could love like her
Would I love without fear?

She is my love
And I envy her
For she knows how to love
Like no other can
