#biggest mindfuck of looking up the lyrics is learning that the english version came first

[shouldprobablybereading]

I’ve been listening to it all day and “Himlen är oskyldigt blå” (Blue virgin isles in english) could totally be a Kaladin and Tien song. It’s all about brotherly love the sad nostalgia of looking back at a more innocent childhood after having faced the harsh realities of adult life

“That raindrops fall like tears do, is not the fault of the stars” “Darling I know what it’s like, when bridges to safety are burned” “Time has chased us into a corner, yet the sky is innocently blue”

“We were children that no evil could reach, the sky was so blue” “Now the clouds are gaining ground, I was blinded because the sun shined so bright” “But my eyes will always smile at you, can anything more be asked of me?”

And from the English version

“Rain keeps falling” “But when we were young, we chased the clouds from the sun” “Darling we fell to the ground, just like leaves when they’re brown” “Still I remember your face with a smile”
