The Other Side of Norsca

 I come from just the other side of Norsca
To this - Big time - lonesome land
Found a lot of Ice and Snow here
Half as cold as all the people at hand
Everywhere I seem to go here - seems to get me down
Seen about enough to know where I belong..

[chor]

I've got a mind to see the moonlight shining on the Fenris Teeth
Between my heart and home...
I'm sick of spending long days - wishing they were gone days
sitting in the Tavern alone
So give my best to anyone who's left who's ever done me
any loving thing but wrong..
tell them that the guy from just the other side of Norsca's going home

Taking nothing back to show them
For these dues I've paid
But the soul I almost sold here -
and the body I've been giving away
Fading from this foreign non-wolf land here
heading for the light of day
Just the other side of Norsca - going home

[A sad lament sung by many a Norscan when travelling far away from their homelands]

[Tune Other side of Nowhere - Kris Kristofferson
Words and arr. Vollsanger . ]
