“Helicopter Over the Glomma” Camilla Rose — American Country Ballad [Verse 1] It was a night when the world got too heavy, I couldn’t see a way back home. The river was running dark beneath me, And I felt like I was all alone. I had lost my faith in tomorrow, Lost the strength to carry on. Then through the darkness came a sound, A light that told me I wasn’t gone. [Chorus] There was a helicopter over the Glomma, A searchlight shining through the night. When I thought my story was over, Someone came and brought me back to life. Now I’m standing here with a second chance, With a heart that still knows how to beat. There was a helicopter over the Glomma, And somehow hope came back to me. [Verse 2] I remember the sound of the rotor, The voices calling out my name. Hands reaching down through the darkness, And nothing would ever be the same. That river still carries my memories, But it doesn’t own me anymore. I walked away from that night behind me, And found something worth living for. [Chorus] There was a helicopter over the Glomma, A searchlight shining through the night. When I thought my story was over, Someone came and brought me back to life. Now I’m standing here with a second chance, With a heart that still knows how to beat. There was a helicopter over the Glomma, And somehow hope came back to me. [Bridge – soft female vocal] If you’re somewhere in the darkness, Thinking nobody can hear, There’s a hand reaching through the silence, There’s somebody who still cares. You don’t have to face tomorrow With the weight you carry tonight. Sometimes all it takes is one voice, One hand, one little light. [Final Chorus – powerful] There was a helicopter over the Glomma, Flying underneath a broken sky. It came for me when I was fading, And gave me one more reason why. Now I’ll sing about the second chance, I’ll sing until the darkness disappears. There was a helicopter over the Glomma, And it brought me back from my darkest night. [Outro – Camilla Rose, quiet] The river keeps on running… But I’m still here. And I’m gonna live this life For all the years I thought I’d lost.
