To Valhalla and Back

To reign in your fire
to bask in your light
must be a pleasure
denied me tonight

  the light in your eyes 
still shows me the way
it doesn't grow dimmer
just farther away

  when you raised me up
when you took my hand
the world fell  away
and my heart took a stand

 you fashioned a castle
in sand on the shore
we lived in it there
till I turned 34

  then you had to go  on
a journey to France
you needed a chicken
who knew how to dance

  God bless you and keep you
as you travel far
I'll reign in your fire
as you burn like a star.

 on a fiord in Sweden or 
under the moon
the vikings are calling
I'm coming home soon
