Lyrics of I Skyggen - Vamp

I Skyggen (original)

I skyggen av meg sjøl du står
bak glittergrønne mil.
Långt borte mellom alle år
med solgull i ditt smil.
Deg har eg aldri sitt, men leita har eg vidt.
Eg vett’kje kor du går og står,
eg tenke pådeg titt.
For du e den eine i alle
og bakanfor alt såe sikkert og visst.
Eg vett at du står borti skyggen ein plass
inni meg.
Og du takke for sist.
I fjerne ungdomsdagar drog
du stiar gjønåmeg,
kor lyngen lyste rødt ålo
ein glae sang om deg.
Eg song an titt,
og såg såvidt
småavtrykk itte dine skritt.
For du e den eine i alle
og bakanfor alt såe sikkert og visst.
Eg vett at du står borti skyggen ein plass
inni meg.
Og du takke for sist.

(translation)

In the shadow of myself you stand
behind glittering green miles.
Far away between all the years
with sun gold in your smile.
I have never found you, but I have been looking for you.
I don't know where you walk and stand,
I'm thinking about you.
Because you are the one in all
and behind everything so sure and certain.
I know you are standing in the shadows somewhere
inside me.
And you thanks for last.
In distant youth days drog
you walk lightly,
where the heather glowed red
a happy song about you.
I sang a little,
and just saw
small footprints in your steps.
Because you are the one in all
and behind everything so sure and certain.
I know you are standing in the shadows somewhere
inside me.
And you thanks for last.
