Change legend line position

Hello,

I have the following situation with my legend:

x = 1:10;
y1 = rand(10,1);
y2 = rand(10,1);
plot(x,y1,x,y2);
l=legend(['blue1' newline 'blue2' newline 'blue3'], ...
         ['orange1' newline 'orange2' newline 'orange3'], ...
         'Orientation','horizontal', 'Location', 'northoutside');

Now I have a legend where I see the line on the left side of my text. However, I wish to have my lines on top of the text. As a visual:

now: text text

-------- text -------- text

text text

I wish: -------- --------

text text

text text

text text

Is it possible to change the arrangement of text and line or to shift the lines to a new position?

Thanks in advance,

Andi
