Fires in the Fjord 4

Verse 1 – male vocal

Ghosts in amber watch the harbor fall

Iron gates are closing on the shore

Wolves howl up where the lighthouse stands

Every shadow turns to smoke

I still hear your laughter through the night

Fading light that never went out

In my chest a fire waits for you

Burning slow like embers in snow

I was born of frost and northern lights

But without you, I'm not whole

This is how I keep the flame from dying

One more song before the winter's grey

You'll find me waiting at the edge of dawn

Where the fjord begins to turn to gold

So let the darkness have its way for now

Let it take the shadows from my skin

I'll hold on tight until you come back in

Pre-Chorus

Then we'll chase the stars across the sea

Together this time, wild and free

Can you hear the ice cracking at our feet?

Break the frost before we freeze

So don't let go of the spark inside

Keep it burning for me to find

I'll be waiting on the other shore

Where the northern lights will shine once more

Chorus – male vocal

Fires in the fjord, fires that never fade

In my heart a flame is still ablaze

Every wave brings one step closer home

To where you are and where I've always known

I'll follow you until the winter's gone

Through the storm we find our own light on

In your eyes I see it burning bright

Fires in the fjord, guiding me tonight

Verse 2 – female vocal

The iron gates are closed but not my heart

The wolves still howl as if they never part

The lighthouse beam cuts through the dark and cold

And every shadow finds its way back home

I've kept your name etched in ice on stone

A love that waits until the thaw is done

You're a sunbreak in a world turned grey

A promise kept before the winter's day

In the stillness I hear you call my name

This time it won't be just an echo or a flame

I'll walk into the dawn with fire in hand

Ready for whatever waits on this new land

Nothing can extinguish what we made

Not even frost and not even shade

You are home and always will be

Wherever I go, that's where you're free

So don't delay, come back to me

In your own time but let it set me free

Pre-Chorus

Then we'll chase the stars across the sea

Together this time, wild and free

Can you hear the ice cracking at our feet?

Break the frost before we freeze

So don't let go of the spark inside

Keep it burning for me to find

I'll be waiting on the other shore

Where the northern lights will shine once more

Chorus – dual vocals

Fires in the fjord, fires that never fade

In my heart a flame is still ablaze

Every wave brings one step closer home

To where you are and where I've always known

I'll follow you until the winter's gone

Through the storm we find our own light on

In your eyes I see it burning bright

Fires in the fjord, guiding me tonight

Bridge – dual vocals

Let go of fear and let the tide come in

Wherever you are is where love begins

This is not a goodbye but a promise kept

We break free from the frozen sleep
