| Lyrics | ||
|
Long time ago, or was it yesterday, He bade farewell, and he sailed far away, Strayed from her arms to adventure and gain, Leaving fair Solveig ever waiting in vain. Sweet dreamer Solveig, There'll be no reply, Just the sound of waves, As the years go by. So many years, staring into the blue, Asking the waves for her wish to come true, How many years, should she wait any more ? Lost to the world like a ghost on the shore. Sweet dreamer Solveig, There'll be no reply, Just the sound of waves, As the years go by. Spring's left behind, summer days are ending, Love makes her blind, as she goes on pretending, He has never gone away, he will return to her any day! Winter has come, now she's always alone, Staring at the sea, like I wait by the phone, Hiding from the truth she can not bear to see, Written on the sand for Solveig and me. Sweet dreamer Solveig, There'll be no reply, Just the sound of waves, As the years go by. Solveig... |
