 If I could climb trees,
oak and birch and bloom
the squirrel’s tomb

I would lie,
until the zephyr sings of home,
and write in bark


If I could swim seas
boat and burning wood
the edge of the world

I would lie,
until the zephyr takes me home,
and write in sand


This song could easily climb the Kilimajaro, slowly but determined. Beautiful. As always. Så FINT! Tack.

Thanks Løve for this lovely suggestion, beautiful and honest.

New version mixed/mastered/produced by Gate57

I think a song like this requires an explanation: 
My dad died of throat cancer in 1993. The last time I saw him, just a few days before he passed away, we hugged, we cried, and I always had the feeling he wanted to say something to me but he could not. I am not sure this is it, but it is the inspiration of the song. I hope you enjoy it for what it is meant to be. 
 
For Dad. I will always miss you!

Lyrics: 
Hello I'm glad you've come ... 
It's good to see you son ... 
It's hard to say goodbye ...
For you as it is I

Soon angels will fly ...
They'll fly high in the sky

So don't fret ... 
It's the peace that I'll get ... 
And I know there are regrets ... 
Let's forgive and forget

Soon angels will fly ...
They'll fly high in the sky

And I know ... 
It's hard to let me go ... 
Son the pain will fade with time ...
Use the love I'll leave behind

Soon angels will fly ...
They'll fly high in the sky

angels will fly ...
angels will fly ...
angels will fly ...

Always Introspective
