When my heart's been tossed about
On life's tumultuous sea
There's one place that I can't do without
One place where I can be free

When no wind fills my sails
And the oarsmen grow weary
There's one place that will cure my ails
One place where days aren't dreary

When the journey, rough and long, is ended
And I seek a place to rest
There's one place where my body rests, my soul is mended
The load taken off my chest

This place is known by few
No map tells of its charms
But it's the one place I always set sail to
The harbor of your arms

Beautiful as always Sven,  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......
