Marit Larsen Album

I could try with a waltz
I could try rock'n'roll
I could try with the blues
If a song would do

I could sing it high or low
When I let you go, you know
I thought it was for the best
Now it is so obvious

So here it is, here it goes
I could try it rock'n'roll
A change-your-life-forever-tune
If a song could get me you
I could make it high or low
Sing it on the radio
If that is what I need to do
If a song could get me you

I could run for miles and miles
I'd take off and I'd start flying
I could cross land and sea
If you'd just believe me

I should not have hurt you so
This old house is not a home
Without you here there's no use
I've got no time left to lose

Chorus

If a song could get me through
I'd sing my way right back to you
Tell me how to make it right
Tell me now, I'll start tonight
I know I could make it last

I swear to you that if I knew
What I was getting myself into
I wouldn't answer to my fears
I'd never leave you standing there

Just look at me

If you'd only see me
I would prove my love for you
I could swallow half the moon
Just tell me where, tell me when
I will have you back again

Chorus

You say, we must move forward
And I say, let's not go back
Once we were brave explorers
But this trail is a worn-out track
Don't chase that setting sun
Look what we've become

Don't save me, I'll save you the hassle
Our little castle is a house of cards
It's empty, heartache is pending
This is us ending

You say, you were just kidding
And I say, this is no joke
We've grown and we're not fitting
We've flamed out to a wisp of smoke
Don't turn the truth around
It reads the same way upside-down

Don't save me, I'll save you the hassle
Our little castle is a house of cards
It's empty, heartache is pending
This is us ending
So don't save me
Don't you dare

Little by little, sneaking upon
Till it's too much to ignore
Let's leave in the middle, before it dead ends
I've been down this road
Don't you dare leave me here
I'll go looking elsewhere!

Don't save me, I'll save you the hassle
Our little castle is a house of cards
It's empty, heartache is pending
This is us ending
So don't save me
Don't you dare

[No lyrics]

It's such a funny sensation to be
So happy that you wanna die
Promises always were crazy to me
But never was I so surprised

Minutes are longer when we are apart
Your presence's more than I can handle
It's come to the point where I wonder if I
Could ever be luckier

When suddenly I'm back at the core
Thinking of her who had you before
Were you as good
As good as we are
Do you remember?
Did you love her the way you love me?
Is there a chance that there might be
Traces of her that you carry under the surface?

Lend me your ears, I would like to confess
I'm doubting that you could be real
By your side wearing a beautiful dress
I celebrate how good it feels

Say that you love me, say that it's true
I know that I want to believe you
But somehow silence speaks louder than words
I'm worried she's still on your mind

Suddenly I'm back at the core
Thinking of her who had you before
Were you as good
As good as we are
Do you remember?
Did you love her the way you love me?
Is there a chance that there might be
Traces of her that you carry under the surface?

Mmm I know that I'm selfish
I know that it's bad
I know, but it's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

Suddenly I'm back at the core
Thinking of her who had you before
Were you as good
As good as we are
Do you remember?
Did you love her the way you love me?
Is there a chance that there might be
Traces of her that you carry under the surface?
Under the surface
Under the surface

So you say I need to consider this
Yours were the face that I couldn't resist
Yours was the fuel to the flames in my heart
Mine were the words that would tear us apart

Well I say I found the letters you wrote
Mine was the smile and the life that you broke
Mine was the story that you told your friends
Yours were the demons you couldn't defend

Understand me, as of lately I've learned a thing or two
There is just no way that I'll be coming home to you

'Cause only a fool would do this again
Only a fool would let you back in
There is no you left to embrace
There is no word would make it feel safe
Love was a gift, stubborn and wild
I was armed with the faith of a child
And you were my joy, you were my friend
There is no going back there again

It's more than you can ask of me my love
I'm coming out of nowhere
It feels good here better than you know
Isn't it only fair that you try and let it go?

Yours was the ring that I started to wear
Yours were the vows that went up in the air
Yours was the choice to stay away from her
Mine was the dream that got lost in the stir

These were the times I would call you my own
These were the times I were waiting at home

I'll tell you something, I've been changing after what you put me through
There is just no way that I'll be coming home to you

'Cause only a fool would do this again
Only a fool would let you back in
There is no you left to embrace
There is no word would make it feel safe
Love was a gift, stubborn and wild
I was armed with the faith of a child
And you were my joy, you were my friend
There is no going back there again

'Cause only a fool would do this again
Only a fool would let you back in
There is no you left to embrace
There is no word would make it feel safe
Love was a gift, stubborn and wild
I was armed with the faith of a child
And you were my joy, you were my friend
There is no going back there again
It's more than you can ask of me my love
I'm coming out of nowhere
It feels good here better than you know
Isn't it only fair that you try and let it go?

Let it go
Let it go
I said only a fool
Only a fool

Cannot fall, never do regret
Know just what is being said
Know the risk you take
Keep your head above it all
Sure you can fall
But not now you gotta prove
Something new, being you, being you

Can't feel, keep from asking why
Be the strongest at goodbyes
Know your place in life
Now expand your wings and fly
It reaches high but not,
Enough you seem to me
So incomplete, swept off your feet

And let me tell you they will always pull you down
Before you know it they will take your smile and push you around
They will fight and struggle
To blur and trouble
Your sense of solid ground

Cannot know, lose your self-control
Be and angel over all
Know your secret way
Laugh at everything they say
Will you remain the same?
And now you dare not see
What's letting go
Inside of me,is it me?

And they will always…

Keep your head above it all, sure you can fall
But not now you gotta prove

And they will always pull you down
Before you know it they will take your smile and push you around
They will haunt your every dream
They will make you come undone at the seams
And they will fight and struggle
To blur and trouble
Your sense of solid ground?

Keep your head above it all
Sure you can fall
But not now you gotta prove
Something new, being you, being you

I got a secret I'm dying to tell you
You're sound asleep, I don't wanna wake you
I'm about to break your heart and you don't know
You don't know

I've got my suitcase it's locked and loaded
And just in case you haven't noticed
I'm about to break your heart or so I hope
So I hope

Ten steps from your bed to your door
Ten steps and I'll see you no more
I've tried and I, can't cry tonight
I've tried and I, can't cry tonight
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

You look sweet like when I first saw you
Heaven knows how I once adored you
I'm about to kiss your mouth one last time

No dream under your eyelashes
Could ever prepare you for this
I'm about to break your heart like you broke mine

Ten steps from your bed to your door
Ten steps and I'll see you no more
I've tried and I, can't cry tonight
I've tried and I, can't cry tonight
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Ten steps from your bed to your door
Ten steps and I'll see you no more
I've tried and I, can't cry tonight
I've tried and I, can't cry tonight

Five steps from your door to my car
Tiptoeing across the front yard
Don't move you stay right where you are

She looks for all the signs
Checks your shirt when you get home
To make sure
She keeps an eye on your telephone
Instead of asking you she asks everyone you're with
And ends up in dark conclusions you're not alone

She calls you up repeatedly
Knows where you're at all the time

At night you tell her she's all you long for
But she knows by your face there has got to be more
Her eyes are too narrow, her legs are too long
She knows by this time tomorrow you'll be gone

She used to be ahead
She had thrilling and exciting things to say
She kept you on your toes all the way
But know the tides have turned
You have come too close to knowing her
God forbid you know what she's really like

When she sleeps she keeps her make up on
She prefers to live in a lie

At night you tell her she's all you long for
But she knows by your face there has got to be more
Her eyes are too narrow, her legs are too long
She knows by this time tomorrow you'll be gone
You'll be gone

Da da da-da da da da
Da da da-da da da da
Na na na-na na na na

At night you tell her she's all you long for
But she knows by your face there has got to be more
Her eyes are too narrow, her legs are too long
She knows by this time tomorrow you'll be gone
You'll be gone

I could tell you , you didn't have a clue
From the moment I laid eyes on you
Above the trouble water was a bridge as fragile could be.
I know just how it feels

I've heard your love songs
All of your love songs and I say, just wait and see
For when i've heard your love song, your bittersweet old ones
I keep thinking: if he would just come with me.

I would be a soften summer breeze
Let your troubles go rest with me
And I would mend the pieces that are left for me to find
Here in these arms of mine

I've heard your love songs
All of your love songs and I say, just wait and see
For when i've heard your love song, your bittersweet old ones
I keep thinking: if he would just come with me.

I've heard your love songs
All of your love songs and I'm waiting patiently
For when i've heard your love song, your bittersweet old ones
I keep thinking: if he would just come with me.
And I'm waiting patiently

When the leaves fell down you were my lover
Winter taught me you were my friend
When the spring came 'round I'd often wonder
Would the summer bring you back again
But now I know

With you it's about the chase
You're not getting anything from me
With you it's about the chase
You're not getting anything from me

I try to find a new direction
You wait on every corner turned
But the minute I ask your attention
You turn on your heels and I get burned
At least I know
At least I know

With you it's about the chase
You're not getting anything from me
With you it's about the chase
You're not getting anything, getting anything, getting anything from me

Like day and night I know this much is true
(With you it's about the chase)
Still every path it leads me back to you
(With you it's about the chase)
It's like a disease, I don't wanna get well
(It's like a disease)
I know it's not easy, but it's easy to tell
It's easy to tell, it's easy to tell with you

With you it's about
With you it's about
With you it's about the chase
You're not getting anything from me
With you it's about the chase
You're not getting anything, getting anything, getting anything today

With you it's about the chase

Listen I don't think I got this right
I though we just had the time of our lives
One word from her and your back in her arms

Listen you thrill me so easily
I'm diseased, stumbling swept off of my feet
One word from her and your back in her arms
But is it love ? Oh is it love?

Look at all that we've overcome
I was so sure it wasn't for fun
One word from her, and your back with her charms

Come home, leave it, is not too late
But no more running in figures of eight
One word from her and our back in her arms

But is it love? Oh is it love?

One word from her and your back
One word from her and your back
One word from her and your back in her arms

But is it love? Oh is it love?

if you are going to steal my heart, steal it like you mean it.
If you want to take a part, then give me something to believe in.

'Couse the road it aint getting longer
And my heart it aint getting younger
For now, the love that we make it's a razorblade
And I don't want to hurt any longer.

Steal my heart.

Let me hear it in you voice, let there be no question.
Leave me with no other choice, than open up to let the light in.


The road it aint getting longer
And my heart it aint getting younger
For now, the love that we make it's a razorblade
And I don't want to hurt any longer.

Steal my heart.

I'm crazy about you so lonely without you
i love you, i love you, i love you.

Away with the trouble
I'll just make it simple i'll be anything that you want.

So if you want to break my heart, break it like you mean it.
If you want our ways to part, then turn away so i can see it

'Couse the road it aint getting longer
And my heart it aint getting stronger
Oh the road it aint getting longer
And my heart it aint getting younger
For now, the love that we make it's a razorblade
And I don't want to hurt any longer.

You give me this and leave me alone here
Do you presume the battle's won?
I'll keep my head above the water
'til you admit the damage's done

Dry shimmer dazzle afternoon
Your poison passion came too soon
You waste what you think you own
You cry when you're still alone

I will not let you go destroy this
I won't allow a broken promise
You give me this and leave me wondering
Am I supposed to put my faith in

Dry shimmer dazzle afternoon
Your poison passion came too soon
You waste what you think you own
You cry when you're still alone
You cry when you're still alone
Cry when you're still alone
