about

This is a song inspired by Bergen in Norway, which is often called "the city between seven mountains". I spent some time in Bergen last winter as part of a month-long solo trip round Europe.

Melanie

lyrics

The rain begins to fall
There's not much to do but watch all the ferries go
Drifting out of reach
It's icy cold
Save your energy
Sheltering from the sea until the night arrives

Maybe we could climb the seven mountains
If the dark clouds pass I'm sure that you will see
I've spent all these days just buried in this place and now
I'm wishing that the sun would start to break

Red and white and gold
The houses line along the water's edge
All covered now in snow
And there's underwater glass
To observe the creatures swimming down below
And wonder where they go

Maybe we could climb the seven mountains
If the dark clouds pass I'm sure that you will see
I've spent all these days just buried in this place and now
I'm wishing that the sun would start to break
