Years ago, before he went out into the world, Rosi and Axel were a young couple in love. Today, they see each other again for the first time.
[Verse1]
Axel came with hands of silence,
weathered skin and a sailor’s eyes.
In Rosi’s inn beside the harbor,
he found a peace he didn’t realize.

[Chorus]
And Rosi sets the table softly,
one plate more, with gentle care.
She smiles when he speaks of storms,
and hopes his heart will linger there.

[Verse 2]
She mends his coat, she warms the kettle,
bakes fresh bread at break of day.
He nods and whispers “thank you, love,”
but drifts again, so far away.

[Bridge]
The gulls are crying over harbor light,
the rain taps gently on the pane.
Rosi whispers in the twilight,
“Axel, love me once again.”

[Chorus]
And Rosi sets the table softly,
one plate more, with gentle care.
Maybe this long northern winter
will bring her heart repair.
