Nation of two

Nation of two

Lyrics/Music: Rune Hauge and Kjersti Misje

You are to me everything
You are my searchin' for heaven
You are an angel baby you are
Woman as you might know I've been flyin' high and low
But now I'm here with you
So here we go and come what may I promise I will stay
Building our nation of two

Where love and trust holds the key
for you and me
for me and you

You are to me...

But oh my man I know you've been flying high and low
but now I'm here with you
So here we go and come what may I promise you I will stay
Building our nation of two

Where love...

Everything
An angel in heaven
Angel baby you are
Everything
My searchin' for heaven
An angel in heaven above

Snake Eyes

Lyrics/Music: Rune Hauge

Don't know what's goin' on, just something in the air
Hey what about you, can you smell a sense of fear
Don't know what's goin' on, just happenin' these days
No matter what you do someone's on your case

No matter how fast you are they're ahead of you
and the secrets you hide they always knew
I know the time will come when these walls will break down
and everybody hidin' will be naked on the ground

Snake eyes, everywhere you turn feel'em in your back
Snake eyes, you can feel'em burn making marks in your neck
Snake eyes, everybody's for sale
don't feel too sure they don't know what's in your mail

They'll take it even if it's your call
Smile in your face though they know you'll fall
Snake eyes

So the flaming desire of truth gets - stronger every day
and people who abuse will - one day have to pay
so look out friend if they try to get to you
just be strong and do what you must do

Don't know what's goin' on, just something in the air
Hey what about you, can you smell a sense of fear
Don't know what's goin' on, just happenin' these days
No matter what you do someone's on your case

Snake eyes...
They'll take it...
Snake eyes...

The memory of you

Lyrics/Music: Kjersti Misje

The memory of you comes to me
from time to time with certain sounds
like raindrops on my window footsteps on the stairs
or distant thunder in the air
makes you feel near in this darkened room
I'm so lost without you

Did I do enough to soothe your pain
I made you smile but it froze again
cause you went slippin' away along a distant track
now you're not around but the more I want you back

You came to me like I knew you would
but something changed and it never should
sayin' that I was not to blame
but in your testimony it was me you framed

All flowers in bloom are soon to die
to welcome winter frost would be a lie
cause you went slippin' away along a distant track
now you're not around but the more I want you back

Where are you now? in a finer place
I can see your face smilin' at somebody else
I thought you'd always be here
the memory of you, the memory of you

I won't

Lyrics/Music: Rune Hauge and Kjersti Misje

I won't go out swingin' on a Saturday night
I won't go searchin' for the flash of the lights
I wanna sit here with my man
oh man that's all I wanna do

I will be sittin' all night long
and he'll be gettin' me all I want
He'll light the candles, pour the wine
oh man that's all you gotta do

I got my remote-control so I don't have to get up
If there's something I don't like I can easily swap
if I like it I'll get by
oh man that's all I wanna do

I know you think it's kind of lazy but I'm that kind
I wanna lay on the couch and sip my wine
and light the candles that's what I'll do
oh babe that's all I wanna do

We like to get together and slow down
if it sounds boring you don't have to hang around
But if you like it, that's what you'll do
oh baby that's all you gotta do

What happened to you

Lyrics/Music: Rune Hauge and Kjersti Misje

Hey Hey - where you been so long
I heard someone - sayin' something went wrong
What happened to you - did you loose your head'n walk out the door
What happened to you - did all you could but she cried for more
What happened to you - what happened to ya

Hey Hey - where you been so long
Hey Hey - it's the same old song
What happened to you - did nothing work out, nothing go right
What happened to you - was it only fuss and fight
What happened to you - what happened to ya

Last time we met you held on to her
You thought she was everything you needed to burn for, to be true
What happened to you

Hey Hey...

So you walked out the door
Didn't you know she was everything you needed to burn for, to be true
What happened to you

If I only knew

Lyrics/Music: Kjersti Misje

If I only knew how to make my move towards you
I wouldn't hesitate If I only knew
If I only knew what you feel for me
I wouldn't run away but stay as close as I could

Cause love takes time to make it mine
false excuses lined up in my mind
I let it wait I hesitate to say the things that matter

If you only knew that my love for you is not ending
that I have to stop pretending or I'll see you soon descending
like the sun will do
if you only knew, if you only knew

This time

Lyrics/Music: Rune Hauge

So you gonna leave me now, say you can't take it anymore
let me make this clear to you
no need to come back and knock on my door

'Cause I know what it's all about, yeah you wanna see the world
wanna catch up with what you missed
oh baby I'm so tired of all the runnin'

Though I love you baby, won't sit around and wait
I love you baby
you might turn around, but this time it's too late

Feel the call of the road, mighty hard to refuse
If you're carrying a heavy load you're easy to abuse

But I know what it's all about...
Though I love you baby...

Call on me

Lyrics/Music: Rune Hauge

Evenin' comes, I'm alone
sittin' here by the phone
waitin' for you to call, for you to call
call on me now, on me

Time goes by not a sign
nobody on the line
you know they say love is blind
love it is blind
call on me now, on me

Night is here, I'm still awake
you see there's a lot at stake
still waitin' for you to call
for you to call
call on me now, on me

Guilty by suspicion

Lyrics/Music: Rune Hauge

Now it's your turn to taste it all
Go ahead feel it watch yourself slowly fall
In your dreams you walk in mud
Then you wake up to the wake of the flood

Where will you run, where will you run and hide
where will you go, rivers got too high
bridges have burned down
no friend to be found

Where will you run, when there is no deal
Where will you go, lotta mines in the field
all you had is lost and gone
they know you're the con
What will you say, hey
When you're the one who's guilty by suspicion

Now it's your turn to taste it all
nightvoices - hear them call
hear them call...

Where will you...

Burnin`bridges

Lyrics/Music: Rune Hauge

Time is comin' gettin closer to the end
Makes me sad brings me down real bad
What took us many years to build up
a few words can break down

Wonder what happened
how could it turn out like this
So confused inside can't tell right from wrong
Pride ain't a good thing ending a friendship so strong

Burnin' bridges
Don't let pride destroy our love

So here we go seperate ways it's time to part
though it breaks my heart
it's the right thing to do
the best for me and you

Burnin' Bridges, it's so cold in my heart
Burnin' Bridges, it's tearing me apart

Don't let pride destroy our love
