Himlen är oskyldigt blå [English translation]

The sky is innocently blue

Like children's eyes when they are small.

That raindrops fall like tears do,

It is not the stars' fault.

Darling, I know how it feels,

When the bridges to safety burn.

But time has chased us into a corner,

The sky is innocently blue.

When we grew up, played life,

We were forever's hope.

It was of course the way our

Future was supposed to be,

Untired and free.

The summers came forth,

The earth warmed our feet where we ran

The rye swayed, and the grass grew green.

All of life was so pleasant.

The sky is innocently blue

Like children's eyes when they are small.

That raindrops fall like tears do,

It is not the stars' fault.

Darling, I know how it feels,

When the bridges to safety burn.

But time has chased us into a corner,

The sky is innocently blue.

Frozen on a beach,

We flew with kites while

time flew away.

We were children that no evil could reach.

The sky was so blue.

Now the moon is taking over the ground.

I was blinded because the sun shone so bright.

But my eyes will always smile at you.

Can any more be asked of me?

The sky is innocently blue,

Like the deepest ocean.

That raindrops fall like tears do,

It is not the stars' fault.

Darling, I know how it feels,

When the bridges to safety burn.

But time has chased us into a corner,

The sky is innocently blue.
