Performed by: Didrik Solli-Tangen
Lyric by: Hanne Sørvaag, Fredrik Kempe
Composed by: Hanne Sørvaag, Fredrik Kempe
Language: English



You are like the sunset behind a mountain somewhere
And when I cannot see you I know you’re still there

Because my heart is yours, I’ll never leave you
Though we are far apart I’m by your side
My love is never gone, I feel it rise again
Through it all, now my heart is yours

You say I am the moonlight, I watch you at night
And when you cannot see me I’m still there in the sky

Because my heart is yours, I’ll never leave you
Though we are far apart I’m by your side
My love is never gone, I feel it rise again
Through it all, now my heart is yours

Because my heart is yours, I’ll never leave you
Though we are far apart I’m by your side
My love is never gone, I feel it rise again
Through it all, now my heart is yours[/center:12kclkh1]

Re: NORGE - Norway 2010

Yeah, not too far from where I live (96 km, but I think the roads are quite bad), but I don't know if I'll be there. Guess I'll decide when I see who's gonna perform there.

Re: NORGE - Norway 2010

I'm glad we don't participate in such an organisation. :x

Re: NORGE - Norway 2010

Many Norwegian press outlets are reporting that a1 will take part in MGP this year. a1 were one of the biggest boybands of the late 90s/early 00s in the UK, with several number 1s. One member, Christian, is Norwegian, and wrote "Sweeter Than A Kiss" in MGP 2009, and another member, Mark, wrote a song in the 2008 UK NF. If they do represent Norway, they would be the best known name in the UK to take part in a very, very, very long time!

Re: NORGE - Norway 2010

Also I liked Lene Alexandra.

Keep Of Kalessin - cool, I like 'em as well, though they are suitable if Norway wants to be out of top-20, imo )))
