song of songs

The song of songs

music/lyrics: Tonje Skarpsno

Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth

For your love is more delightful than wine

Pleasing is the fragrance of your perfume

Take me away with you

Oh hurry now, hurry now

Take me away with you my love

Hurry now, take me away

How beautiful you are my darling

Your eyes behind your veil are doves

By the water streams, washed in milk, mounted like jewels

Take me away with you

Woun't you hurry now, hurry now

Take me away with you my love

Hurry now, take me away

Many waters can not quench love, rivers can not wash it away

It burns like a blazing fire

But my own vineyard is mine to give, I'll give you my love

Just take me away with you

Oh hurry now, hurry now

Take me away with you my love

Hurry now, take me away



Recently some of the songs I wrote when I was between 19-22 are coming back to me. This song has only been performed once. It was my exam piece when I was graduating from dance school I played the piano and sang this song. Pretty funny that they let me pull that of when I look back, but it seemed a great ide at the time. Most of my songs have never seen the light of day. I don't know why I'm starting to sing them now, but I am. So I thought I'd share them with you. Well only half since you really can't get a good impression of where I'm at without actually hearing it, but it's a start.

Have you got any songs hidden away? I'm coming forwars with another one tomorrow.

Oh I got most my christmas shopping done today, but it got a bit more expensive than I had planned. Oh well, at least someone will be happy.
