Ocean Rose : Shine Dion



Ocean Rose : Shine Dion

  She was a silent white rose
  who lived in a tall iron tower
  Barefoot she wandered in her room
  dreaming of life and a lover
  And in a night she threw a net
  into the ocean wide and deep
  And some of the things she caught in there
  made her sad and made her weep
  A fiery warmth embraced her heart
  when sun rays caught her hair
  And then she looked upon the world
  her longing got hard to bear
  She was locked in an iron tower
  with windows but no doors to be found
  Often she listened hard at night
  for a voice in the ocean\'s sound
  And voices was mingling with her own
  waves were singing,flee the tower
  By the stairway that takes you down
  follow the ocean\'s song my flower
  Silent the rose went down
  she was shivering in the dark and the cold
  Through in an opening in the wall
  the ocean sang as fortold
  Floating upon the warm blue sea
  by the waves to a shore she was led
  Among the trees red roses grow
  and the white rose turned to red...
Shine Dión

Shine Dión is a Norwegian duo that started out in Skien in 1993. It consists of Janne Hansen: vocals and lyrics and Per Selör: composer and guitars.

Among the instruments they are using are: violin, flutes, saxophone, mandolin, percussions, mellotron, accoustic/el.guitars. The lyrics are inspired by mythology, fairy tales and the scenery of Norwegian landscapes.
