(Morten Harket / Ole Sverre Olsen)

I thought that it was you

The things you saw me do

They were true

Little did I know

You found me in your joy

And there was I, a little boy

My shadows they're not new

My soul's split in two

Lord, I thought that it was you

This Christmas snow that falls

Gives silence to us all, amen, amen

You know my deepest sin

You've seen me deep within

So fill me now like wind

And let the miracle begin

There's a river and you know

There's a place we used to go

That's where I throw our ashes now

I must have walked into a cave

Among these things that you must save

And there I touched the grave

You know my deepest sin

You've seen me deep within

But fill me now like wind

And let the miracle begin

You know my deepest sin

You've seen me deep within

But fill me now like wind

And let the miracle begin

Sometimes I felt so sure

When I opened up your doors

That there'd been no one there before

You know my deepest sin

You've seen me deep within

But fly, fly higher from it

Just look into my eyes

You know my deepest sin

You've seen me deep within

But fill me now like wind

And let the miracle begin

And the secrets that you say
