Akureyri Lyrics in English Aitana , Sebastián Yatra

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Akureyri by Aitana from Spanish to English.
Verse 1
Smile at me once more, but it's that I'm capable
Of stretching this night out, stay to sleep
Verse 1
Next to me
Tell me a little about you, I felt your pain
Even if it's hard for you to talk about it, you can tell me
In your green eyes I saw a bit of gray
Chorus 1
Hand me your coat, hug me
I'm not good with the cold nor will I be
But tonight with you I'll find
My bed on your couch
Your arm as a pillow will keep me company
To dream of Akureyri and fantasize
That we have time together left and forget
That tomorrow I wake up and you're not there anymore
It's just you and me
Looking at the sky
Chorus 1
Waiting for an aurora that doesn't come and what does it matter?
If it's you and me
That the sky doesn't shine
It doesn't matter
You light me up much more
And that light will never go away
Verse 2
I looked at you, I looked at you and I thought of you until you reacted
Until you kissed me
A blue lagoon, some pink lips and you
And although it had an ending, in the end it was nobody's fault
Nobody is ever to blame
But I'll miss you
Chorus 2
Hand me your coat, hug me
I'm not good with the cold nor will I be
But tonight with you I'll find
My bed on your couch
Your arm as a pillow will keep me company
To dream of Akureyri and fantasize
That we have time together left and forget
That tomorrow I wake up and you're not there anymore
It's just you and me
Looking at the sky
Chorus 2
Waiting for an aurora that doesn't come and what does it matter?
If it's you and me
That the sky doesn't shine
It doesn't matter
You light me up much more
And that light will never go away

SONG MEANING

Akureyri sweeps listeners into a dreamy, late-night confession where Spanish pop star Aitana and Colombian crooner Sebastián Yatra find shelter from the literal and emotional cold in each other’s arms. Beneath references to green-yet-clouded eyes, borrowed coats, and a sofa turned sanctuary, the song paints Akureyri — the Icelandic town famed for its northern lights — as a magical backdrop for a fleeting romance that feels both healing and heartbreaking. While they wait for an aurora that never quite appears, the pair realize that their own glow is brighter than any sky show, celebrating the power of shared vulnerability, temporary escapes, and the bittersweet beauty of moments that cannot last. 🎇
