music : Velvet Belly lyrics : Dag Olsvik My story's never told Until my fingers cease to trace The changing lines upon your face My thoughts've ever flown Like piercing cries through morning haze To make me redefine my days My days were spent in turn Within the stanzas of some verse Left on somebody's table
My garments worn and torn on words My breath between the lines That he could never learn by heart My story's never told Until my fingers cease to trace The changing lines upon your face I draw a deeper breath And leave my story still untold Approach the days that will unfold
