Ultima Thule
Bearing North
The sea belongs to me, But I never took for free
Iґve seen how dreary days, comes and turns away!
Everyone these oceans like home for me are made
And on storm, bewildered waters, Iґve never been afraid!
But beckoning in the north a sign breaks memories to come forth
And it hurts my heart to know that Iґm 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 Iґm 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 Iґm not home!
And if looking with closed eyes, I see Nordic forest pride
And the place where I once was born!
