En timme till

One More Hour

We did it just to be able to say we did it
You thought that things would eventually change
if only we believed in it
 
We found all those things we said we had dreamt of,
and you promised me my name would be well known,1
eventually,
but that was back then
 
Blue skies are too blue
Lie to me, I want to believe
I wanna be blind to it,
for one more hour,
no matter what you say
 
We tried it, just to have something to sing about later
You threw out all you owned just to feel alive,
in London
 
We burned ourselves just to feel something
You pretended, just to see if I caught on
I think you saw it, you’ve got to promise
 
Blue skies are too blue
Lie to me, I want to believe
I wanna be blind to it,
for one more hour,
no matter what you say
 
If you could choose,
who would you like to be?
Take my headphones
Great, isn’t it?
 
Tell me that we fit
Tell me
what you told me,
when you told the truth
 
Blue skies are too blue
Lie to me, I want to believe
I wanna be blind to it,
for one more hour,
no matter what you say
  • 1. Literally “You promised I would be one of those people who people have heard about”
