Jarlshof - Beyond the Northlands Lyrics

Lyrics Beyond the Northlands - Jarlshof



Endless north seas
Icy cold waves
Our ship makes its way
Northward to the land of gods
And giants or so they say
Gentle breeze blows, carries the longship
Through night and day
Months have passed since summer days
When we first sailed away
Far beyond the northlands
Far beyond our seas
Far north from our homeland
Sailing into eternity
Starry night sky
No cloud in sight
Sign of the approaching winter
Silent seas and gentle waves
Will surely be our icy graves
All hope is now lost
Our thoughts are of home
And our families
A land we left so eagerly
But now there's nowhere we'd rather be
We are condemned to die
Or drift eternally
Icebergs off the starboard bow
The gateway to a frozen hell
The cold sun in the pale sky
No breath of wind no cloud in sight
Horizon reaching out
For the edge
And as day
Turns to night
Another day passes no land in sight
The autumn twilight biting cold
In an unknown realm so old
We're never going home
Endless north seas
Winter nights so cold
North stars guiding light
Accompanied by pale moonlight
Changing seasons
Winter drawing in
No sun to guide us home
Drifting all alone
Suddenly a northern breeze picks up
The cold wind fills the sails
Heading south towards our homes
We know we will not fail
Each man finds reborn strength
As he grabs hold of the rope
Raise the halyards and let us fly
Our hearts are filled with hope
With fire in our hearts
We crash through frothing seas
Heading south towards our home
And our families
Then the storm came crashing in
And turned our dreams to dust
Lightning splits the wooden mast
It crashes down on us
The mast splits the ship in two
And she is going down
It's every man for himself
But we know we all will drown
I cry out for help
As I die alone
Icy black water
Fills my lungs
I'm dragged beneath
And the darkness closes in
