Still Friends

lyrics

A winter-white sky, the love of my life
That’s how it was on the year that we met
Now it’s winter again, seven years since then
We don’t share a bed, oh, but we are still friends
It all passed us by in the blink of an eye
And that’s what makes it meaningful and meaningless too

On the south west coast, you and I alone
The world looks more beautiful when you are in love
We woke to the sea and walked through the town
Your heart was my heart and my eyes were your eyes
You sat on the sand darkened by rain
And looked towards a distance that you couldn’t see


I want to believe that there’s more to this life
Than living to die for a moment in time

The simplicity of it scares me so much
A brief flash of light between two separate darks

That’s why I sing and that’s why I write
To capture the beauty before it’s gone

It’s why I still care for you, why I always will
I can’t bear to die without you in my life


But I don’t know about your life now
There’s nothing to know about my life now

Take whatever you want from me
And carry it with you where you go love

Cause I want to be as empty
As Oslo’s islands in the autumn
