Elysian Night

I am so far away...
You see, I’m nothing without thee.
I fall down, down to the ground
And, all alone, I wish that I could go.

Drown here with me.
Hold me, save me.

Are you there, beloved one?
I clench our whisper to the fading,
Playing out the frozen dream
To watch me bleed in the sunrise,
Watch me bleed in the sunrise.

Break... Can you see how I break?
And still, my world remains the same.
Oh, don’t die, please stay a while.
Oh, this night we’ll learn how to fly.

Snow is falling from ebon skies
And I see some peace in your eyes,
Playing out this frozen dream
To watch me bleed in the sunrise,
Watch me bleed in the sunrise.

I can’t go on with the quiet
To wait until we wake up,
To be gone with the fire:
I must go now.

Drown here with me.
Hold me, save me.

Are you there, beloved one?
Will you help me carry on
And lead me through the sunrise,
Lead me through the sunrise?

I can’t go on with the quiet
To wait until we wake up,
To be gone with the fire:
I must go now.

Sinceramente, non credo nemmeno di ricordare quando sia stata l’ultima volta che ho pianto (letteralmente, non per iperbole) per una canzone d’ammoreh. Ma a quanto pare, ad Anders Jacobsson i miracoli riescono.
