Rune's Adventure
For Rune
Verse 1
Rune behind the wheel with Dire Straits playing loud
Patsy Cline and Shania Twain, music he's so proud
To the forest we would go, chopping wood all day
Loading up the tractor, Rune would lead the way
Chorus
Oh Rune, our father, sixty years today
From Hellesylt summers to the mountains where we'd play
Rune, you taught us laughter, taught us how to be strong
Happy birthday, Rune, this is your celebration song
Verse 2
Salmon fishing every summer, camping by the shore
Long tables full of family, memories to adore
Johan caught you with his hook, right there in your hand
Rune just laughed and carried on, the gentlest of men
Chorus
Oh Rune, our father, sixty years today
From Hellesylt summers to the mountains where we'd play
Rune, you taught us laughter, taught us how to be strong
Happy birthday, Rune, this is your celebration song
Bridge
Nadia at the cross-country races, cheering from the side
Johan at the biathlon, Rune filled with pride
Mountain hikes and jumping stones, like Mr. Bean you'd dance
Dad jokes and your silly ways, you gave us every chance
Final Chorus
Oh Rune, our father, sixty candles burning bright
From Nadia and Johan, with love we sing tonight
Rune, you are our hero, our guide through thick and thin
Happy birthday, dear Rune, let the celebration begin!
