Name: East of The Sun, West of the Moon
Duration: P00H04M12S
Description: My second attempt at singing. silly me of choosing such a challenging song from an amazing singer such as Morten Harket of A-ha. Thankfully, this is not their ubiquitous hit, "take on me". But an obscure title track from their 4th album. I love this song and wanted to give it a more rock approach instead of the folky sound they did on that album. Hope you like it.

lyrics

Half of a letter
Tells half a story
The way I see it
It's half the worry
Where I came from
I forgot too soon...
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Money talks
And hey, I'm listening
I've lived without it
Enough to miss it
Where I'm going
I'll get there soon
East of the sun
And west of the moon
Another day leaves me aching
I try to wake up
But something's breaking
Here inside me
Deep and hollow
A sound that no other sound could follow
I know the pain
Before the wound
East of the sun
And west of the moon
