[Pre-Chorus: Ragnar] Alone we traveled armed with nothing but a shadow We fled far away
[Chorus: Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir, Ragnar] Hold your horses now (We sleep until the sun goes down) Through the woods, we ran (Deep into the mountain sound) Hold your horses now (We sleep until the sun goes down) Through the woods, we ran
[Chorus: Nanna, Ragnar] Hold your horses now (We sleep until the sun goes down) Through the woods, we ran (Deep into the mountain sound) Hold your horses now (We sleep until the sun goes down) Through the woods, we ran
[Post-Chorus 1: Nanna, Ragnar] Whoa oh, oh, oh-oh (We sleep until the sun goes down) Whoa oh, whoa oh (We sleep until the sun goes down) Whoa oh, whoa oh (We sleep until the sun goes down)!
[Chorus: Nanna, Ragnar] Hold your horses now (We sleep until the sun goes down) Through the woods, we ran (Deep into the mountain sound) Hold your horses now (We sleep until the sun goes down) Through the woods, we ran...
[Chorus: Nanna, Ragnar] Hold your horses now (We sleep until the sun goes down) Through the woods, we ran (Deep into the mountain sound) Hold your horses now (We sleep until the sun goes down) Through the woods, we ran...
[Post-Chorus 2: Nanna, Ragnar] La la la Whoa oh, oh, oh-oh La la la (We sleep until the sun goes down) La la la Whoa oh, whoa oh La la la (We sleep until the sun goes)
