Use my body while it's still young
Celebrate the life in my bones
My pounding heart
Oh make it rush and run

Use my arms to tie down the dark
The muscles and the veins can be sparks
To lift you up
To make us glow at night
The only thing that stops this noise is skin.

Use my words to make you feel safe
The syllables can tip on your head
Can make you smile
So use them for a while
Can make you smile
So use them for a while
The only thing that stops this noise is skin.

Use my body while it's still strong.
Wrap yourself in all of this warmth
This aching love
Come use it while it's alive
This aching love
Come use it while it's alive

We'll all be gone in hundred years
We'll all be gone in hundred years
We'll all be gone in hundred years
We'll all be gone in hundred years
We'll all be gone in hundred years
(Use my body while it's still young)
We'll all be gone in hundred years
(Use my body while it's still young)

In a contemplative mood after a recent birthday.

This song may have amplified some regrets.

Last I heard RomeoTuna was dancing in a UFO with some bow-legged gypsies. RP isn't the same without him!

Ah, RP, you are really spoiling us with these Vikings. Another fine Scandi singer I'd not heard of. Takk så mycket :o)

I really enjoy this song; it has great energy. The video for it is very nice as well, with a much older woman doing some sort of interpretive dance.

This is the first time I heard it. I was thinking Ane Brun redux!

This song reminds me A WHOLE LOT of Kosheen — very similar to songs on "Resist".  Love that album, so I think I like this song too!

Sounds too much like Ane Brun "Do You Remember"
with the volume low sounds very similar
