Samma gamla himmel
Hanna Järver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Samma gamla himmel
Ljudet av en sönderslagen dörr, hade glömt att den fanns
Att du försiktet böjde huvet
I alla lådor låg ditt namn
vatten skonar ingen alls ser ljusblått ut på håll
Men under samma gamla täcke
Drabbas du än igen
Jag står över
Och du har drunkat i panik
Det kanske brändes
Men blommorna dom rev du själv bort
Samma gamla himmel, brändes
Samma gamla himmel, men blommorna dom rev du själv bort
Samma gamla himmel, brändes
Samma gamla himmel, men blommorna
Väntar i ett stilla lämnat rum bakom sten, grus och jord
Du ville aldrig lyssna
Det är tur att jag förstår
Sjönhet skonar ingen alls ser ljusblått ut på håll
Men under samma gamla himmel
hoppas du ändrar dig
Jag står över
och du har drunknat i panik
Det kanske brändes
Men bommorna dom rev du själv bort
Samma gamla himmel, brändes
Samma gamla himmel, men blommorna dom rev du själv bort
Samma gamla himmel, brändes
Samma gamla himmel, men blommorna
samma gamla himmel
samma gamla himmel

The sound of a broken door, forgotten that it existed
Att du försiktet böjde huvet

I alla lådor låg ditt namn
Your name was in every box
