歌词：

Sigur Ros -All Alright

I want him to know

What I have done
I want him to know
It's bad
I want him to know
What I have done
I want him to know
Right now

Maybe it's time tomorrow
Or maybe today
It is not right
Now it's better
Now we'll know
Now he'll know
What I am telling
I'm sitting with you
Sitting in silence
Let's sing into the years, like one
Singing in tune, together
A psalm for no one
Let's sing in tune
But now it's home
LyricsYou sing into the night now
Just sing on for me
You sing into the night
You...
You stay to be alright
