lyrics

When I Sing
by Solvej Schou ©

I feel strongest
When I sing
I open my mouth
And I pull in everything
My mind goes blank
And my heart, it is singing

You wonder if you should be alone
All the thoughts you have
How can I know every one
Except for love is the one
On the edge of my tongue
Except for love is the one
That we are made of

When it's cold I'll warm your skin
My lips on the inside of your neck
And then no words
We don't need to say anything
No words
We don't need to say anything

I feel strongest
When I sing
My fear slips away
And the sound enters me
Until I can no longer breathe
Only sing
Until I can no longer breathe
Only sing
Oh ohhhhhhhh
Oh ohhhhhhhh ooooooo yeah
Oh ohhhhhhhh
Oh ohhhhhhhh ooooooo yeah
