Marit Larsen Album

In came the light,
It swallowed me whole
Melted the tracks in the snow
To leave room for the new
To leave room for the new

In came the light
And we started to glow

It's such a funny sensation to be
So happy that you wanna die
Promises always were crazy to me
But never was I so surprised

Minutes are longer when we are apart
Your presence's more than I can handle
It's come to the point where I wonder if I
Could ever be luckier

When suddenly I'm back at the core
Thinking of her who had you before
Were you as good
As good as we are
Do you remember?
Did you love her the way you love me?
Is there a chance that there might be
Traces of her that you carry under the surface?

Lend me your ears, I would like to confess
I'm doubting that you could be real
By your side wearing a beautiful dress
I celebrate how good it feels

Say that you love me, say that it's true
I know that I want to believe you
But somehow silence speaks louder than words
I'm worried she's still on your mind

Suddenly I'm back at the core
Thinking of her who had you before
Were you as good
As good as we are
Do you remember?
Did you love her the way you love me?
Is there a chance that there might be
Traces of her that you carry under the surface?

Mmm I know that I'm selfish
I know that it's bad
I know, but it's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

Suddenly I'm back at the core
Thinking of her who had you before
Were you as good
As good as we are
Do you remember?
Did you love her the way you love me?
Is there a chance that there might be
Traces of her that you carry under the surface?
Under the surface
Under the surface

You say, we must move forward
And I say, let's not go back
Once we were brave explorers
But this trail is a worn-out track
Don't chase that setting sun
Look what we've become

Don't save me, I'll save you the hassle
Our little castle is a house of cards
It's empty, heartache is pending
This is us ending

You say, you were just kidding
And I say, this is no joke
We've grown and we're not fitting
We've flamed out to a wisp of smoke
Don't turn the truth around
It reads the same way upside-down

Don't save me, I'll save you the hassle
Our little castle is a house of cards
It's empty, heartache is pending
This is us ending
So don't save me
Don't you dare

Little by little, sneaking upon
Till it's too much to ignore
Let's leave in the middle, before it dead ends
I've been down this road
Don't you dare leave me here
I'll go looking elsewhere!

Don't save me, I'll save you the hassle
Our little castle is a house of cards
It's empty, heartache is pending
This is us ending
So don't save me
Don't you dare

So you say I need to consider this
Yours were the face that I couldn't resist
Yours was the fuel to the flames in my heart
Mine were the words that would tear us apart

Well I say I found the letters you wrote
Mine was the smile and the life that you broke
Mine was the story that you told your friends
Yours were the demons you couldn't defend

Understand me, as of lately I've learned a thing or two
There is just no way that I'll be coming home to you

'Cause only a fool would do this again
Only a fool would let you back in
There is no you left to embrace
There is no word would make it feel safe
Love was a gift, stubborn and wild
I was armed with the faith of a child
And you were my joy, you were my friend
There is no going back there again

It's more than you can ask of me my love
I'm coming out of nowhere
It feels good here better than you know
Isn't it only fair that you try and let it go?

Yours was the ring that I started to wear
Yours were the vows that went up in the air
Yours was the choice to stay away from her
Mine was the dream that got lost in the stir

These were the times I would call you my own
These were the times I were waiting at home

I'll tell you something, I've been changing after what you put me through
There is just no way that I'll be coming home to you

'Cause only a fool would do this again
Only a fool would let you back in
There is no you left to embrace
There is no word would make it feel safe
Love was a gift, stubborn and wild
I was armed with the faith of a child
And you were my joy, you were my friend
There is no going back there again

'Cause only a fool would do this again
Only a fool would let you back in
There is no you left to embrace
There is no word would make it feel safe
Love was a gift, stubborn and wild
I was armed with the faith of a child
And you were my joy, you were my friend
There is no going back there again
It's more than you can ask of me my love
I'm coming out of nowhere
It feels good here better than you know
Isn't it only fair that you try and let it go?

Let it go
Let it go
I said only a fool
Only a fool

Cannot fall, never do regret
Know just what is being said
Know the risk you take
Keep your head above it all
Sure you can fall
But not now you gotta prove
Something new, being you, being you

Can't feel, keep from asking why
Be the strongest at goodbyes
Know your place in life
Now expand your wings and fly
It reaches high but not,
Enough you seem to me
So incomplete, swept off your feet

And let me tell you they will always pull you down
Before you know it they will take your smile and push you around
They will fight and struggle
To blur and trouble
Your sense of solid ground

Cannot know, lose your self-control
Be and angel over all
Know your secret way
Laugh at everything they say
Will you remain the same?
And now you dare not see
What's letting go
Inside of me,is it me?

And they will always…

Keep your head above it all, sure you can fall
But not now you gotta prove

And they will always pull you down
Before you know it they will take your smile and push you around
They will haunt your every dream
They will make you come undone at the seams
And they will fight and struggle
To blur and trouble
Your sense of solid ground?

Keep your head above it all
Sure you can fall
But not now you gotta prove
Something new, being you, being you

She looks for all the signs
Checks your shirt when you get home
To make sure
She keeps an eye on your telephone
Instead of asking you she asks everyone you're with
And ends up in dark conclusions you're not alone

She calls you up repeatedly
Knows where you're at all the time

At night you tell her she's all you long for
But she knows by your face there has got to be more
Her eyes are too narrow, her legs are too long
She knows by this time tomorrow you'll be gone

She used to be ahead
She had thrilling and exciting things to say
She kept you on your toes all the way
But know the tides have turned
You have come too close to knowing her
God forbid you know what she's really like

When she sleeps she keeps her make up on
She prefers to live in a lie

At night you tell her she's all you long for
But she knows by your face there has got to be more
Her eyes are too narrow, her legs are too long
She knows by this time tomorrow you'll be gone
You'll be gone

Da da da-da da da da
Da da da-da da da da
Na na na-na na na na

At night you tell her she's all you long for
But she knows by your face there has got to be more
Her eyes are too narrow, her legs are too long
She knows by this time tomorrow you'll be gone
You'll be gone

How hard can it be
To have and to keep
What everyone has
I walk in the streets
The beautiful meet
They're starting to laugh

I know too much
I've seen too much
I crave to much
I'm out of touch

My recent illusion
Blurred out my conclusion
There's no one for me
I can't do it right
I can't sleep at night
He's all that I see

But I want to much
Demand too much
I crave too much
I'm out of touch

I aim high, you aim low
Oh, ain't that just the way it goes
I see sparks, you see none
Had I only quit while it was fun

Yeah

Ooh

But I seek too much
I try too much
Look I cry too much
I've lost my touch
Think I've lost my touch
But it was fun

Dive in with me
I got dust on my feet
I got guilt on my hands
I need to give myself a second chance

Dive in with me
I got mud to my knees
My partner in crime
Tell me have you got the time?

I'm coming clean of jealousy and shame
I've come to play the sinking game
I've come to let my armor down
Come to let my armor down

We dive into disease
We dive deep, deep, down in the sea
Hold your breath with me until I'm ready
We dive to devotion through all of my emotions
You will Not let me go 'till you're finished with me.

Dive in with me
My eyes are heavy
I can't come to peace
I can't remember what I did

I'm coming clean of jealousy and shame
I've come to play the sinking game
I've come to let my armor down
Come to let my armor down

We dive into disease
We dive deep, deep, down in the sea
Hold your breath with me until I'm ready
We dive into devotion through all of my emotions
You will not let me go 'till you're finished with me.

We dive into disease
We dive deep, deep, down in the sea
Hold your breath with me until I'm ready
We dive to devotion through all of my emotions
You will not let me go 'till you're finished with me.

We dive

A dream in a jar
A memory scar
Though trapped in a frame
Not one day the same
I fell and I weep
'til I'm too tired to sleep
And I ask permission to land
To strike up the band

Yet I'll build and I'll sow
I'll watch 'til it grows
And I will take the chance
There'll be no last dance

No when it arrives
The darkest of nights
Let me have my back turned
And not realise

The story's coming to an end
I'll never be just giving in
I'm living by the rolling dice
It's closure but it's in disguise

I try and I try (I will try so hard)
I'll play with the fire (I circle around the fire because)
It goes unexplained (it goes unexplained)
I'm still in the game (I'm still in the game)
I'm scared to the bone (I'm scared to the bone)
I'm sitting at home (I'm sitting at home)
I prepared on the day (will bet on the day)
They're ready for me

No when it arrives
The brightest of lights
Let me have my back turned
And not realise

The story's coming to an end
I'll never be just giving in
I'm living by the rolling dice
It's closure but it sure feels nice

Give me an invitation more than a guess
Give me a sign if only one single breath
I'll give you an empty page
This is the time and place

What kind of truth lives in the absence of trust?
What is the use of holding back on this much?
My eyes are open wide
Won't you let me inside?

Come closer, love
I can't hear what you're saying
Don't make it easy love
All the corners are fraying
How can I please you, love
When I don't know what you want?
It's a nice escape, but will it keep you warm at night?
I don't think so.

Uuh, how about you tell me what you're doubting us for?
What is wrong with both feet on this side of the door?
There is no easy way I'll be the one who stays

Come closer, love
I can't hear what you're saying
Don't make it easy love
All the corners are fraying
How can I please you, love
When I don't know what you want?
It's a nice escape, but will it keep you warm at night?
It's a nice escape, but will it keep you warm at night?
I don't think so.

You're so close to me
You're so far away
I don't know what you mean
You're way out of reach
You're so close to me
You're so far away

Come closer, love
I can't hear what you're saying
Don't make it easy love
All the corners are fraying
Won't you come closer, love
I can't hear what you're saying
How can I please you, love
When I don't know what you want?
It's a nice escape, but will it keep you warm at night?
It's a nice escape, but will it keep you warm at night?
(I don't think so)

You give me this and leave me alone here
Do you presume the battle's won?
I'll keep my head above the water
'til you admit the damage's done

Dry shimmer dazzle afternoon
Your poison passion came too soon
You waste what you think you own
You cry when you're still alone

I will not let you go destroy this
I won't allow a broken promise
You give me this and leave me wondering
Am I supposed to put my faith in

Dry shimmer dazzle afternoon
Your poison passion came too soon
You waste what you think you own
You cry when you're still alone
You cry when you're still alone
Cry when you're still alone
