LYRICS & TRANSLATION

Hvil deg nå, du er sliten
Hvil din kropp før din kraft ebber ut
Vann pipler inn i dine sko
Du vandrer i regn
Mil etter mil etter mil
Etter mil etter mil etter mil
Søk mot meg hvis du lengter
Rett ditt sinn mot et annet sted
Komm hit hvor jeg er, hvor solen er nær
Du må ikke gå
Mil etter mil etter mil
Etter mil etter mil etter mil
Og det er langt å gå
Det er lengselen som driver deg
Mot et lys som du kan ѕe
Men ikke jeg
Tenk deg om nå
Hvor farer du hen
Du har vandret altfor lenge
Mil etter mil etter mil
Etter mil etter mil etter mil
Tenk deg om nå
Hvor farer du hen
Du har vandret аltfor lenge
Mil etter mil etter mil
Etter mil etter mil etter mil
Etter mil etter mil etter mil
Etter mil etter mil etter mil
Etter mil
