God, I wish the norwegian version was on youtube aswell.. Ah well. Thanks a bunch for adding this in english at least. =) It's a wonderfull song. I just "found" her again. My mother used to play this lots when I was a child and now I understand why.
I heard about this singer-songwriter in a youtube channel I watch, 2 Norse fashion designers, (called SIT AND KNIT A BIT). They were right- a beautiful voice!
A Lover in Berlin Once I had a lover in Berlin Said a frail old woman at a table next to minel His voice was like an ancient violin And he spoke to me - that voice ... that voice I believe they call it falling for a man But this falling made me fly, left me soaring for the sky There wasn't any sense, there was no plan But who would trade this passion for the safety of dry land? Not I Not he And we knew we had to travel far away We knew we had to disappear, where no one else could find us A sailing ship would take us from the bay Its sails would fill with an offshore wind to blind us We gambled our security - the future for the now Sailed off toward the storm, safety cast aside We'd gone beyond what reason would allow But who could tame the tidal wave and tell it where to go Not I Not you Reality then brought it to an end Said the frail old woman, shaking underneath her hat A decent set of values is no friend It's reason now that blinds us, please believe And passion is not willing to be steered Purity alone won't fill a ship's wide sails Life will sometimes bring what we most feared And who could ever say when to go or when to stay? Not you Not we
I had one in Paris. Listening to her song, I think of him ... en pleurant.
Es gibt lover, die vergisst man nicht.
The best female singer alive.
Incredible dramatic story-song. Thank you!

It sounds great.
A Lover in Berlin
Once I had a lover in Berlin
Said a frail old woman at a table next to minel
His voice was like an ancient violin
And he spoke to me - that voice ... that voice
I believe they call it falling for a man
But this falling made me fly, left me soaring for the sky
There wasn't any sense, there was no plan
But who would trade this passion for the safety of dry land?
Not I
Not he
And we knew we had to travel far away
We knew we had to disappear, where no one else could find us
A sailing ship would take us from the bay
Its sails would fill with an offshore wind to blind us
We gambled our security - the future for the now
Sailed off toward the storm, safety cast aside
We'd gone beyond what reason would allow
But who could tame the tidal wave and tell it where to go
Not I
Not you
Reality then brought it to an end
Said the frail old woman, shaking underneath her hat
A decent set of values is no friend
It's reason now that blinds us, please believe
And passion is not willing to be steered
Purity alone won't fill a ship's wide sails
Life will sometimes bring what we most feared
And who could ever say when to go or when to stay?
Not you
Not we

Dude, chill out. This is too good for Eurovision material. Lol
Ez a dal ezzel a hanggal és egy audiofil hangzással mindent visz.
Could you please post "Montreal" too? Thank you
Rare song
