Until I'm Home is an emotional Viking song by Viking Lore Vault, bringing Nordic folk storytelling to a mother's journey across a stormy sea—and her promise to return to her child.

“One more pull, one more mile
Let me see my little one smile.”

A torn sail. Blistered hands. Someone waiting on the shore.

Until I'm Home follows a woman holding on through exhaustion, helping another rower beside her, and finding the strength to keep going because home is still ahead.

For everyone who has spent too long away from the people they love.

00:00I told you I'd come home
00:08I'm coming home
00:17You stood barefoot by the doorway
00:19With my cloak around your knees
00:21Asked me if the boat was ready
00:24Asked how long I'd be at sea
00:26I bent down to kiss your forehead
00:28You held tight against my sleeve
00:30All the silver I could carry
00:32Couldn't make it good to leave
00:34Now the sail is torn above me
00:36And the shore is out of sight
00:38I can hear the words you told me
00:41As I pull against the night
00:46One more pull, one more mile
00:48Let me see my little one smile
00:50Both hands blistered white with foam
00:52I won't let go until I'm home
00:54Until I'm home
00:57Until I'm home
00:59There's someone waiting on that shore
01:01And I have held you once before
01:03I'll hold you close once more
01:13There's a man beside me shaking
01:15So I help him hold his oar
01:18He has spent the whole night talking
01:20Of the girl he's rowing for
01:22When his fingers lose their feel
01:24And I move closer on the sea
01:26And we pull the blade together
01:28With the water at our feet
01:30Then a girl cries out above us
01:33And he lifts his head to sea
01:34There's a dark ridge on the skyline
01:37Where the open sea should be
01:41One more pull, one more mile
01:44Let me see my little one smile
01:46Both hands blistered white with foam
01:48I won't let go until I'm home
01:50Until I'm home
01:53Until I'm home
01:54There's someone waiting on that shore
01:56And I have held you once before
01:59I'll hold you close once more
02:17If you wake before the sunrise
02:21If you hear them on the sand
02:25Leave my cloak beside the doorway
02:30I'll be there to take your hand
02:37One more pull, one more mile
02:39Let me see my little one smile
02:41Both hands blistered white with foam
02:43I won't let go until I'm home
02:45Until I'm home
02:48Until I'm home
02:49There's someone running down the shore
02:52And I have held you once before
02:54I'll hold you close once more
03:03You came barefoot through the water
03:06I dropped down upon my knees
03:09Couldn't get a word between us
03:11You were holding on to me
03:14You were holding on to me
03:16You were holding on to me
03:19You were holding on to me
03:19You were holding on to me
