She came home just won the game
Long time struggle she fulfilled her dream
All she wanted was to make you proud
You weren't there
He had his birthday a few days ago
He got some presents, a big party too
And there were congratulation calls
As the years before
Not ever one from you
You weren't there
Distant far away
It's like this everyday
They see you in their heads
Wonder if you'll come
Afraid to close their eyes
And miss you once again
She cut herself on a piece of paper
It didn't hurt but she saw the blood
She could need that embrace
You weren't there
Did he have to cry louder?
Would that make you hear him?
You see his heart was broken
For the first time
You weren't there
Distant far away
It's like this everyday
They see you in their heads
Wonder if you'll come
Afraid to close their eyes
And miss you once again
Cannot turn back time
A wish yet to come true
They're making up these stories about you
You weren't there
Distant far away
It's like this everyday
They see you in their heads
Wonder if you'll come
Afraid to close their eyes
And miss you once again
And miss you once again
Long time struggle she fulfilled her dream
All she wanted was to make you proud
You weren't there
He had his birthday a few days ago
He got some presents, a big party too
And there were congratulation calls
As the years before
Not ever one from you
You weren't there
Distant far away
It's like this everyday

Wonder if you'll come

Hey, funny, that's what I picked.
Oh, see, I live in the Central Time Zone, so it READS like an 8.
Nice grrrrl music.
Gone from 7 to 9 to 10. Great tune.
This is living!
pretty, but with a nice tempo that keeps it moving.
Nice easy listening. :nodhead: And she's from neighboring Norway. 
I've seen the video for this song and it just reminds me so much of Scandinavia. :daisy.gif:

This is good
normally donÃ't really like this "little-girl-is-so-emotional"-singer/songwriter stuff ... but i think she has one of the nicest voices in the whole music biz
I've seen an interview with her on Mtv Italy and her English is impeccable. I thought she was Canadian. She has few other nice songs.
Kind of sounds like the Cranberries at times, though without the strength of voice...
