Arcadians Songtext

von Sivert Høyem

Vows that have been broken
Can't be made anew
I must turn now to anyone
In the absence of you
There she stands in the doorway
And she calls me in
Some bitter awakening
This all has been
She sits on a wooden floor
Her house is down by a stream
Trees hush in the night sky
It's like you're dreaming in a dream
And more sweetness awaits
In the arms and the loins of sin
Some bitter awakening
This all has been

Arcadians, Arcadians, Arcadians
We're Arcadians all
Holy was the ground
Where two people met
They came from a different place
That they would soon forget
Guess you sacrifice some things
When you play to win
You take what you can't use
And you trade it in
But soon you'll be going for most anything
Some bitter awakening
This all has been
