  • It was me on that road
    But you couldn't see me
    Too many lights out, but nowhere near here

    It was me on that road
    Still you couldn't see me
    And then flashlights and explosions
    And explosions

    Roads end getting nearer
    We cover distance but not together

    I am the storm and I am the wonder
    And the flashlights, nightmares
    And sudden explosions

    Roads end getting nearer
    We cover distance still not together

    If I am the storm, if I am the wonder
    Will I have flashlights, nightmares
    And sudden explosions

    I don't know what more to ask for
    I was given just one wish

    It's about you and the sun
    A morning run
    The story of my maker
    What I have and what I ache for

    I've got a golden ear
    I cut and I spear

    It's about you and the sun
    A morning run
    The story of my maker
    What I have and what I ache for

    I've got a golden ear
    I cut and I spear
    What else is there?

    And what else is there ah Writer/s: Danny Shoshan, Karin Elizabeth Dreijer Andersson, Olof Bjorn Dreijer, Robert Huxley, Roger John Reginald Greenaway, Svein Berge, Tony Macaulay, Torbjorn Brundtland

  • Heather from Of Spherical BoulderKarin's voice is so haunting; she's so talented, for sure the way she can "MOVE" the listener. Would love to meet her in real life.... see her perform live.
  • Leesh from BelgiumKarin is not "she". They identify as genderfluid and use "they" pronouns.
  • Dean from DublinMarianne Schröder is lip-syncing to Karen Dreijer's voice in this video.
  • Daniel from BerlinKaren is not the girl singing the song in the video, but she makes a cameo. She's the older lady at the dinner table.
