[Intro]
Ooooooooohhhh oooohhhh ooooooooohhhh
Ooooooooohhhh oooohhhh ooooooooohhhh
[Break]
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
The wandering bard is here for you.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
I will sing a tale of the two.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
Their love where warm and their hearts where too.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
Lets all remember the love they knew.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
the song is golden and its true.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
Listen closely, when i sing the tale for you.
[Verse]
At break of dawn I left our shore, the longship kissed the tide,
Your hair still warm upon my chest, your tears you tried to hide.
You tied the red thread round my wrist, you whispered “come back whole”,
I swore by steel and ancient gods I’d guard my living soul, and return back home.
[Drums]
[Chorus]
Not yet for Valhalla, not yet for the hall,
The ravens may circle, but I will not fall.
Your voice is my shield, your love is my flame,
I fight for the road that leads me home again.
[Break]
[Intro]
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
I swear i will return back home to you.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
Look out into the horizon blue.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
I promise is honest and true.
[Bridge]
[Verse]
We crossed the whale-road, through storm and through fear,
With salt on our beards and death drawing near.
The drums of war thundered, shields locked in line,
But your face in my memory was stronger than mine.
[Chorus]
Not yet for Valhalla, not yet for the feast,
I will not lie down at the side of the beast.
While you wait by the fire, while your heart calls my name,
I fight for the road that leads home again.
[Verse]
The battlefield burned under iron and scream,
Blood soaked the earth like a terrible dream.
I felt Odin’s shadow pass close by my side,
But I turned from his gaze — I chose life for my love waiting back home, and odins hand i denied.
[Bridge]
Let others be taken by spear and by song,
Let skalds carve their names where the fallen belong.
I am not finished, my saga still stands,
My fate is still written in your waiting hands.
[Final Chorus]
Not yet for Valhalla, the gods can wait still,
My heart beats for her, for valley and hill.
I stood, I struck, I lived through the flame,
I won — and I’m sailing back home again.
[Break]
[Intro]
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
That where the tale of the two.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du
Love makes you feel alive, and its true.
Dim dim meli dum, dim dim meli du.
[Outro]
Now the oars cut the water, the shore comes in sight,
You stand where you promised, in glory and in light.
No gold, no great glory, just truth in my eyes —
I came back from war. I chose love. I survived.
