Alexander Rybak Album

I won’t blame
The hurting when you
You left in the sweetest way
I won’t say that it’s you
Making me feel this way
It’s the heart and the soul and the body and the brain
Driving me insane
But the wind and the land and the fire and the rain
Always stay the same

[Chorus:]
Aye aye aye
While I roll with the wind
Bringing distance to everything
Aye aye aye wo-oh
Aye aye aye
While I sit by the fire
And glance at the pouring rain
Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye

I won't claim it's all cause of you
I guess that I played a part
It’s just that I never knew
I'd fall for you from the start

There’s a hole in my heart and a picture in the frame
Driving me insane
But the wind and the land and the fire and the rain
Always stay the same

[Chorus:]
Aye aye aye
While I roll with the wind
Bringing distance to everything
Aye aye aye wo-oh
Aye aye aye
While I sit by the fire
And glance at the pouring rain
Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye.

I would never blame you for the heartache
I would never blame you for the tears
I blame my stubborn heart, soul and body
Every single thing around me stays the same
No matter what

[Chorus: 2X]
Aye aye aye
While I roll with the wind
Bringing distance to everything
Aye aye aye wo-oh
Aye aye aye
While I sit by the fire
And glance at the pouring rain
Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye

Roll with the Wind

I won’t blame the hurting when you
You left in the sweetest way
I won’t say that it’s you
Making me feel this way

It’s the heart and the soul and the body and the brain
Driving me insane
But the wind and the land and the fire and the rain
Always stay the same

[Chorus:]
Aye aye aye
While I roll with the wind
Bringing distance to everything
Aye aye aye wo-oh

Aye aye aye
While I sit by the fire
And glance at the pouring rain
Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye

I won't claim it's all cause of you
I guess that I played a part
It’s just that I never knew
I'd fall for you from the start

There’s a hole in my heart and a picture in the frame
Driving me insane
But the wind and the land and the fire and the rain
Always stay the same

[Chorus:]
Aye aye aye
While I roll with the wind
Bringing distance to everything
Aye aye aye wo-oh

Aye aye aye
While I sit by the fire
And glance at the pouring rain
Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye

I would never blame you for the heartache
I would never blame you for the tears
I blame my stubborn heart, soul and body
Every single thing around me stays the same
No matter what

[Chorus: 2X]
Aye aye aye
While I roll with the wind
Bringing distance to everything
Aye aye aye wo-oh

Aye aye aye
While I sit by the fire
And glance at the pouring rain
Aye aye aye
Aye aye aye

Years ago, when I was younger
I kinda liked, a girl I knew
She was mine, and we were sweethearts
That was then, but then it's true

I'm in love with a fairytale, even though it hurts
'Cause I don't care, if I loose my mind
I'm already cursed

Every day, we start a fighting
Every night, we fell in love
No one else, could make me sader
But no one else, could lift me high above

I don't know, what I was doing
When suddenly, we fell apart
Now a days, I cannot find her
But when I do, we'll get a brand new start

I'm in love with a fairytale, even though it hurts
'Cause I don't care, if I loose my mind
I'm already cursed

She's a fairytale (yeah) even though it hurts
'Cause I don't care, if I loose my mind
I'm already cursed

Drifting alone
Where am I to go?
The purpose of me
Sadly I don’t know.
Who will take my hand
I’m sailing in a sand
Nothing to enjoy
Feeling quite destroyed.

But I know a magic dolphin,
Swimming above the world.
And in my dreams it promised me,
That some day i’ll find my girl.

Noone to love,
Noone to loose.
All by myself,
This is what I choose.
Love is everywhere,
Why should I even care?
When I ever change,
That would sure be strange!

But I know a magic dolphin,
Swimming above the world.
And in my dreams it promised me,
That some day i’ll find my girl.

She has the taste of summer,
Cute shiny eyes of love.
And until i’ll find that girl of mine,
I have a friend above.
Yes I have a friend above.

‘Cause I know a magic dolphin,
Swimming above the world.
And in my dreams it promised me,
That some day i’ll find my girl.

She has the taste of summer,
Cute shiny eyes of love.
Until i’ll find that girl of mine,
I have a friend above.
I have a friend above.
Yes I have a friend above.

Dolphin

Drifting alone
Where am I to go?
The purpose of me
Sadly I don’t know
Who will take my hand
I’m sailing in a sand
Nothing to enjoy
Feeling quite destroyed.

But I know a magic dolphin
Swimming above the world.
And in my dreams it promised me,
That some day I’ll find my girl.

No one to love,
No one to lose.
All by myself,
This is what I choose.
Love is everywhere,
Why should I even care?
When I ever change,
That would sure be strange!

But I know a magic dolphin,
Swimming above the world.

She has the taste of summer,
Cute shiny eyes of love.

I have a friend above.
I have a friend above.
Yes, I have a friend above.

And you always try to warn me
Of the pretty girls out there
Now I finally learned my lesson
And she got a story to share.

Don't kiss and tell!
Don't kiss and tell!

Listen son my mama said
Love don't cost a thing.
Happiness is free for all
Just treat it like it's king.
And if you true love leaves one day
Make sure not to go wrong
The girl will laugh all the way
As she waves so long.

Don't kiss and tell!
And you always try to warn me
Don't kiss and tell!
Of the pretty girls out there
Don't kiss and tell!
Now I finally learned my lesson
And she got a story to share.

Some years later I found love,
When it seem to go my way.
The girl is like a fairytale,
I didn't have to pay.
So one day my sweetheart went
Then mama's words came true
Crying with a broken heart
I was left all blue.

Don't kiss and tell!
And you always try to warn me
Don't kiss and tell!
Of the pretty girls out there
Don't kiss and tell!
Now I finally learned my lesson
And she got a story to share.

Love is always
Love is always for sale
Cause someone's willing
Someone's willing to pay

Don't kiss and tell!
And you always try to warn me
Of the pretty girls out there
Now I finally learned my lesson
And she got a story to share.

Don't kiss and tell!
And you always try to warn me
Don't kiss and tell!
Of the pretty girls out there
Don't kiss and tell!
Now I finally learned my lesson
And she got a story to share.

Suddenly I'm famous,
And people know my name.
I've got a thousand girls just waiting,
And therefore it's a shame
That my heart has been captured
By your funny little smile.
And finally I'm happy,
If only for a while.

People call me stupid,
For treating you like a queen.
But I don't even worry,
'Cause you're my unforeseen
And I hope that you'll be with me,
If only in my dreams.
But here you are next to me,
And you're glad, or so it seems.

And I don't know for sure
Where this is going.
Still I hope for more, and more.
'Cause who would know that you
Would treat me like a boy,
And I treat you like a girl,
In this funny little world.

Don't promise me for ever,
Just love me day by day.
No one knows the future,
We're young, but that's OK.
'Cause you'll allways be a part of me,
Whatever life will bring.
And people have to bear with you,
This silly song i sing.

Your boyfriends might be angry,
My girlfriends might be blue.
But no one can deny it,
From now on I love you.
I have to say it's new to me,
This feeling in my heart.
Guess i've been kind of lonely,
And you've been kind of smart.

And I don't know for sure
Where this is going.
Still I hope for more, and more.
'Cause who would know that you
Would treat me like a boy,
And I treat you like a girl,
In this funny little world.

And I don't know for sure
Where this is going.
Still I hope for more, and more.
'Cause who would know that you
Would treat me like a boy,
And I treat you like a girl,
In this funny little world.

This funny little world

This funny little world

If you were gone the moon would lose it's brightness
Without your smile the finch will sing no more
And once in a while some waves would side with sadness
Remembering two lovers walking by the shore

If you were gone the days would all be pointless
And in the night I'd sing the song so blue
A song about spring and every happy moment
When I had all the time along with you

But you’re right here and nothing could be better
So take my hand and stay with me to dark
And while the wind is playing with your sweater
I can't imagine life if you were gone...

If you were gone the world would lose it's meaning
Without your love how could I smile again
And though the sun would always keep on shining
I'd never shine without my dearest friend

But you’re right here and nothing could be better
So take my hand and stay with me to dark
And while the wind is playing with your sweater
I can't imagine life if you were gone...

If You Were Gone

If you were gone the moon would lose it's brightness
Without your smile the finch will sing no more
And once in a while some waves would side with sadness
Remembering two lovers walking by the shore

If you were gone the days would all be pointless
And in the night I'd sing the song so blue
A song about spring and every happy moment
When I had all the time along with you

[Chorus: 2x]
But you're right here and nothing could be better
So take my hand and stay with me to dark
And wile the wind is playing with your sweater
I can't imagine life if you were gone...

If you were gone the world would lose it's meaning
Without your love how could I smile again
And though the sun would always keep on shining
I'd never shine without my dearest friend

[Chorus:]
But you're right here and nothing could be better
So take my hand and stay with me to dark
And wile the wind is playing with your sweater
I can't imagine life if you were gone...

Sleepless in the night
I try to lose my faith in you
Saying to myself
You can't be the right one for me

And now that you are gone
I finally get a taste of freedom
Only problem is
I don't really want to be free

I don't want to be abandoned
I don't want to curse your name
I don't want to feel the sadness
Pretending that I'm still the same
I don't want to burn your letters
I don't want to face the truth
I don't want to be abandoned
I don't want to waste my youth

You tried to suffocate with your pretence
And I believed in this shallow romance
I ran from cover but I couldn't hide
And still you try to get me to abide

You scratched me like a perfume ad
Erasing all the feelings that I had
And all the time you face this loneliness
Cause you wouldn't see my twisted mess

I don't want to be abandoned
I don't want to curse your name
I don't want to feel the sadness
Pretending that I'm still the same
I don't want to burn your letters
I don't want to face the truth
I don't want to be abandoned
I don't want to waste my youth

Abandoned

Sleepless in the night
I try to lose my faith in you
Saying to myself
You can't be the right one for me

And now that you are gone
I finally get a taste of freedom
Only problem is
I don't really want to be free

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna be abandoned
I don't want to curse your name
I don't wanna feel the sadness
Pretending that I'm still the same
I don't want to burn your letters
I don't want to face the truth
I don't wanna be abandoned
I don't wanna waste my youth

You tried to suffocate with your pretence
And I believed in this shallow romance
I ran from cover but I couldn't hide
And still you try to get me to abide

You scratched me like a perfumed
Erasing all the feelings that I had
And all the time you face this loneliness
Ñause you wouldn't see my twisted mess

[Chorus:]
I don't wanna be abandoned
I don't want to curse your name
I don't wanna feel the sadness
Pretending that I'm still the same
I don't want to burn your letters
I don't want to face the truth
I don't wanna be abandoned
I don't wanna waste my youth

13 horses swimming in a sea
Waiting for someone to find them
Their ship is gone
And now they are alone
With water everywhere around them
The men were saved from the sinking ship
Right before it started to burn
And while they safe,
Their loyal friends need help,
Patiently waiting for their turn

13 horses swimming in a sea
They don't even know it's pointless
The pride remains
But this time it won't help
They used to be so tall and suddenly they're small
There's a couple waiting for behind
Soon they'll be out of sight
But then who cares, they're dying anyway
All of them are doomed this night

11 horses swimming in a sea
The sea they thought was just a river
They're used to this, it's probably just a race
That helps to ease their minds
But where's the finish line?
The night grows dark
The body wants to rest
It hurts to breathe
And still they do their best
They want to live no matter for how long
Their thoughts had disappeared
Cause now they're pretty scared

7 horses struggling in a sea
Waiting for someone to find them
They don't look back
Cause what's the point of that
There is only death behind them
They cry for help
But help will never come
They don't know where to swim
Or what they swimming from
They try to swim some more
When panic starts to spread
They're swimming to a shore
But only in their heads

The 3 last horses dying in a sea
Shouting out their cries for no one
They born to win
They're screaming in their hurts
The strength of 100 men
They're fighting until the end

The sun is up
Birds are everywhere
They're flying high, surfing in the air
It's nice to live when life is such a blast
One horse still swims, it seems to be the last
The 13th horse has always been the best
His owner will be proud, but now he wants to rest
His longing for his home, the girl will give him food
"Good boy" she'll say, together they will play.

13 horses swimming in a sea
Soon they will be gone forever
And while they swim, one thing still remains
And that's the hope that never dies.
It never dies.
It never dies.
