[00:00.00]Be Like Him - Torun Eriksen
[00:01.88]Over the midnight lights of Moscow
[00:04.55]
[00:07.75]So high the city shines like stars
[00:11.61]
[00:14.24]Ten times the size of my sweet Oslo
[00:17.84]
[00:18.92]Hosting nearly six hundred thousand hearts
[00:23.85]
[00:26.68]Now I am flying east
[00:30.30]
[00:33.23]Farther than I've ever been
[00:35.64]
[00:39.48]And next to me off duty is a pilot half asleep
[00:44.46]
[00:45.88]He's seen so many places I have never seen
[00:50.15]
[00:52.50]I wanna be like him
[00:55.53]
[00:57.10]I wanna see the world I wanna take life as it comes
[01:02.20]
[01:05.25]I wanna be like him
[01:08.28]
[01:09.27]Visit people I don't know
[01:11.84]
[01:12.61]But can get to know and then invite them back to where I'm from
[01:18.40]
[01:19.16]I saw beauty new and different
[01:21.93]
[01:24.79]But I met warmth that made me feel like home
[01:28.52]
[01:31.35]Though miles and miles away from Oslo
[01:34.54]
[01:35.69]Hearts filled with life find ways to speak I should have known
[01:41.08]
[01:43.77]Now I am flying north
[01:46.57]
[01:49.97]Been farther than I ever went
[01:52.35]
[01:56.37]The pilot's not beside me but he smiled and waved goodbye
[02:01.74]
[02:02.63]He knew after I'd seen all this I'd learned to fly
[02:08.18]
[02:08.79]I wanna be like him
[02:12.28]
[02:13.78]I wanna see the world I wanna take life as it comes
[02:18.68]
[02:22.03]I wanna be like him
[02:24.93]
[02:25.89]Visit people I don't know
[02:28.48]
[02:29.05]But can get to know and then invite them home
[02:33.70]
[02:34.74]Up there I was waiting for the morning sun to tuck me in
[02:41.27]Praying for a sake return while cutting through the wind
[02:46.38]
[02:47.42]My favorite pilot says he loves the take off part
[02:52.11]Now that's the part I dread the most
[02:54.96]
[02:56.61]But I should try his way of thinking
[02:59.14]
[02:59.93]As it might just be the start
[03:02.58]
[03:03.66]Something that would deeply change my northern heart
[03:08.21]
[03:35.49]I wanna be like him
[03:38.36]
[03:39.96]I wanna see the world
[03:42.34]I wanna take life as it comes
[03:45.37]
[03:48.05]I wanna be like him
[03:51.13]
[03:51.86]Visit people I don't know
[03:54.60]
[03:55.33]But can get to know and then invite them home
[03:59.83]
[04:00.41]Yeah I wanna be like him
[04:03.73]
[04:05.26]I wanna see the world
[04:07.28]
[04:07.95]I wanna take life as it comes
[04:10.73]
[04:13.45]I wanna be like him
[04:16.45]
[04:17.20]Visit people I don't know
[04:20.66]But can get to know and then invite them back to where I'm from
