A Wintry Silence
MAGNE (MAGS) FURUHOLMEN
now we're just the two of us
and then there will be one
all we have treasured
will soon be gone
we cannot say what happened
and we don't know what may come
all these emotions
where have they gone
silences between us
have solidified as scorn
for every xmas rose we had
the heart has grown a thorn
we have watched in wonder
at the things that passed us by
all this commotion
how hard we tried
the shadows of the years
have drawn lines across your face
as we go on pretending
we have everything in place
breathe the fires of this world
over and over again
breathe until the smouldering ashes
spell out our names
for every xmas rose we got
our hearts have grown a thorn
the silences between us
now solidified as scorn
