Daughters Of The North lyrics

Home and home, home and home Home and home, home and home Tiny hand in the first Snowflakes caught in your hair You traced the runes on my old shield You asked me how they got there I lift you high to the wind Breathe it in that northern air You laugh and call me a mountain Say you'll be taller than I dare Daughter of the North Eyes of amber frost You say I stand where you stood Win the battles you have lost If my name turns into story Let it live inside your heart Daughter of the North You will walk a wilder shore You wear my cloak like a cape Trip on the weight of the world You fight giants every day, I say Some live inside my skull You press your palm to my scars Counting each one like a beat You were scared, you asked me softly, I say Courage still can bleed Daughter of the North Eyes of amber frost You say I stand where you stood Win the battles you have lost If my name turns into story Let it live inside your heart Daughter of the North You will walk a wilder shore When the dark comes early When the winds tear at your fire Hear my voice inside the thunder Feel our fathers in the choir If you ever doubt your power If your knees sink in the snow Raise your face up to the storm clouds That's the place your people grow Daughter of the North Eyes of amber frost You say I stand where you stood Win the battles you have lost If my name fades into shadow You'll be brighter than before Daughter of the North You're the saga I fight for Hey-ey-eh-eh Hey-ey, hey-ey-eh-eh Hey-ey, hey-ey-eh-eh Hey-ey, hey-ey-eh-eh Hey-ey, hey-ey-eh-eh Hey-ey, hey-ey-eh-eh
