Paindrops - Petter Carlsen

Last night we saw a giant eagle

Painting circles on the sky

The midnight sun was really eager

To make this view an all time high

Here we are beside his bed

The conversation turns to snow

Seems no one can break the silence

From a man we used to know

From a man we used to know

Going places we cannot follow

There is no sign of spark in his eyes

Where spark was meant to be

As substitute for words he can’t find

Drops of pain are what he speaks

Not even in his final hour

Will he share what goes on inside

A chain of thoughts arrives this moment

When drops of pain escape his eyes

From a man we used to know

Going places we cannot follow

There is no spark in his eyes

Where spark was meant to be

As substitute for words he can’t find

Drops of pain are what he speaks

Tables turn you never know

A chain of thoughts

Through the snow

To make this day an all time low

Drops of pain are what he speaks
