Ten More Miles

(album: Turisas2013 - 2013)

Who will be there when the skies turn grey?
Turisas! You can count on us
Who's gonna push you through heavy days?
Turisas! Rugged and robust

The night was cold, but I kept walking on
I had passed the point of no return
Turning back was too late but a thought just kept creeping in
Was I walking the wrong way?

You think that it's too late
Change the course, do not hesitate
Ten more miles and you'll find yourself hoping you had

When your ship has sailed
Take the next, and you're on your way
The old dog will learn as many tricks as its false pride permits

Who will be there when the skies turn grey?
Turisas! You can count on us
Who's gonna push you through heavy days?
Turisas! Rugged and robust

When you have run aground
When on the rocks
When water's flooding in
How to turn around your luck?

Stop crying in your beer
Out with the bails
Soon you'll be on course again
With wind in the sails

It was much too late to start at her age
How could she ever compete with the best?
There's always someone with a head start on you
But there is no pro league of life

Persistence is noble, said the captain while going down
Went down with his ship, that old fool
Lacked the courage to turn around, oh yeah

Who will be there when the skies turn grey?
Turisas! You can count on us
Who's gonna push you through heavy days?
Turisas! Rugged and robust

When you have run aground
When on the rocks
When water's flooding in
How to turn around your luck?

Stop crying in your beer
Out with the bails
When winds are blowing hard
Hold on to the rails!
Sail against the wind if that's what it takes...
