Lyrics

Cries Of The Heart - Vikings vs Celts
V1
As he´s looking over his once beautiful highlands
Once filled with love now savaged by violence
The chieftain’s only daughter as sweet as she could be
He was set to marry but he knew, she is not for me
V2
As they both had loved another neither wanted to stay
Then a striking Viking came and whisked her away
Now he was free to love the only girl he ever loved
A simple farmer’s daughter from the Nordic of folks
CH
Aaaaa….Souls ripped apart
Aaaaa…….Even strong men they cry
As their true love has been sacrificed
And the loved ones they die
Vikings vs celts
In the cries of the hearts
V3
But as the man makes his plans the Norns might not agree
Your path has been woven for you, you cannot foresee
The chieftain he is furious his wishes had been ignored
Revenge will soon come knocking, death was at their door
V4
May all the Norsemen and their daughters die before I rest
The highlands became a bloody bath as he carried out his quest
Now a sad and lonely figure the highlander reflects
Wondering if the chieftain’s daughter and her Viking man was a success
Aaaaa….Souls ripped apart
Aaaaa…….Even strong men they cry
As their true love has been sacrificed
When their loved ones they die
Viking vs celts
In the cries of the hearts
M8
All this pain
On these plains
For the souls I weep
As I fall asleep
Aaaaa….Souls ripped apart
Aaaaa…….Even strong men they cry
As their true love is sacrificed
When their loved ones they die
Viking vs celts
In the cries of the hearts
