Aware from Roots by Rolf Eikeland

I’ve been around here for a long, long time
I’ve chased and gained it all
I’ve been rich and I haven’t had a dime
Been on and off the ball

I see it clear
The guiding hand
The sacrifice, the cost
I can hear it
Roaring across the land
That losing doesn’t equal lost

I’ve seen the world from 30.000 feet
It’s beauty and it’s pain
Some are in the gutter, some in the mercy seat
There’s Abel and there’s Cain

There’s no escape
But strength to make it through
To save me from myself
A golden grape
In the morning dew
The best wine on the shelf


I feel a change come on
A new thing over me
I’ve been noticed by someone
Here in my fig tree

If I had a thousand lives to live
I’d live them all with you
I only have a fractured mind to give
But take my body too

A million stars
Dance before my eyes
I’m floating in the air
Sweet guitars
Echo through the skies
I am so aware
