Alta, I want to know you And to feel your green I want to show you what I have not seen Before you had a name Before the sailors came I would fight to save you I would give my life Alta, now it is morning And I think of you I can remember the perfect view Before you had a name Before I feel shame I would fight to save you I would give my life Before you had a name Before the sailors came I would fight to save you I would give my life Life, life, life
