The couple were seen together again on the streets of Madrid after weeks of rumors and this Friday, April 26, they made it official with the launch of ‘Akureyri’a collaboration in which both narrate how this new stage of their love story emerged.
The strange word (‘akureyri’) that both have chosen to give the title to this new song, after months without releasing new music, is one of the unknowns that many have tried to unravel since they announced this new song. However, the truth is that, behind it, there is hidden an important meaning which explains their breakup, but also the resurgence of their courtship almost six months after their breakup.
Lyrics and video of ‘Akureyri’, the new song by Sebastian Yatra and Aitana
smile at me one more time
You will see that I am able to extend this night
Stay to sleep next to me
Tell me a little about yourself, I felt your pain
Even if it’s hard for you to talk, you can tell me.
In your green eyes I saw a little gray
Pass me your coat, hug me
I am not good at the cold nor will I be
But tonight with you I will find
My bed on your sofa
Your pillow arm will accompany me
To dream about Akureyri and fantasize
That we have time left together and forget
That tomorrow I wake up and you are no more
You and I were left looking at the sky
Waiting for a dawn that doesn’t come and what difference does it make?
If it’s you and me
That the sky doesn’t shine doesn’t matter
You illuminate me much more
And this light will never go away
I looked at you, I looked at you and I thought about you until you reacted
until you kissed me
A compliment, a blue, some pink lips of yours
Although it had an ending, in the end it was no one’s fault
It’s never anyone’s fault, but I’ll miss you.
Pass me your coat, hug me
I am not good at the cold nor will I be
But tonight with you I will find
My bed on your sofa
Your pillow arm will accompany me
To dream about Akureyri and fantasize
That we have time left together and forget
That tomorrow I wake up and you are no more
You and I were left looking at the sky
Waiting for a dawn that doesn’t come and what difference does it make?
If it’s you and me
That the sky doesn’t shine doesn’t matter
You illuminate me much more
And this light will never go away
