Lyrics:
Alone in the night
with only the thought of you,
the stars that come into view
Do I know you by heart?

When we are apart,
how are you so near to me?
So vivid, so clear to me
Like I know you by heart

When you want me like I want you
We’re defenseless to our senses, to ourselves
But in hindsight, beyond the moonlight,
at the merciless break of dawn,
will we awake and love move on?
Our memories slip through the hands of time,
like stars,
eclipsed in the dark,
all alone in the night?

Alone in the night
when you’re making love to me
we know love instinctively
Don’t you know me by heart?

When you love me like I love you
We’re defenseless to our senses, to our souls
But in hindsight, in the twilight
at the merciless break of dawn,
will we awake, and love move on?
Our memories slip through the hands of time,
like stars, eclipsed in the dark
like you and I,
all alone in the night?

Alone in the night
how will you remember us?
If your memory turns to dust,
will you know me by heart?

It's like a man in a boat and a siren in the sea singing together

[AURORAstuff]

I fell in love with the vibes of this song since Sondre posted a one minute snippet of it on Instagram in late 2020. their voices go very nicely together, and they're just as amazing in solo parts too♡ great collab

[leni_haylett]

The fact Sondre isn't globally known and recognized is musical treason.

[SilverWitch]

Goodness Sondre’s and AURORA’s voices blend so well together. AURORA’s particularly is beautiful. 🥺🥺🥺 what a lovely song!

[roegoleg]

This felt like a classic film with Aurora as the timeless movie star of days gone by. The music, the mood, the imagined thoughts and emotions between the two protagonists. She just has a way of expressing so much intent, whether real or imaginary. It just draws you in. Oh, and I love her hair. So perfectly imperfect.

[steveng]

How is that only at 78K views? Should easily be at 7.8 million.

[timmackenzie]

One of the heaviest but most beautiful songs I've heard in the last 10 years. Alzheimer's and dementia are on both sides of my family, and I can't help but feel that I'll be living the life this song describes in the future. Saw the diseases rob two grandparents of everything eventually, though neither had their spouse to witness the descent...which is equally sad and merciful. Thank you for this masterpiece Sondre, and for choosing a counterpart that will help this song last forever!

[russell]

WOW, it's been a LOOOONGGGG time since I heard a male vocalist that really caught my attention so completely!!! Of course I came here for Aurora, having fallen in love with her just weeks ago, and so glad I did or I would never have heard Sondre's amazing voice and music, what a complete surprise!!! And this song was AMAZING, just incredible with that retro sound that takes me back to the 60's and some of the love songs coming from the Continent and France in particular, simply perfection ;?)

[kmmmmmma]

okay but i just love how sondre is looking off into the distance all inspired and stuff, while aurora is just laying on the ground

classic aurora lol

LYRICS:

Alone in the night with only the thought of you
The stars that come into view, do I know you by heart?
When we are apart, how are you so near to me?
So vivid, so clear to me, like I know you by heart

{Chorus 1: Sondre Lerche, with AURORA}
When you want me like I want you
We're defenseless to our senses, to our souls
But in hindsight, beyond the moonlight
At the merciless break of dawn
Will we awake and love move on?
Our bodies fade at the hands of time
Like stars eclipsed in the dark
All alone in the night
All alone in the night

{Verse 2: Sondre Lerche & AURORA}
Alone in the night, when you're making love to me
We know love instinctively, don't you know me by heart?

{Chorus 2: Sondre Lerche, with AURORA}
When you love me like I love you
We're defenseless to our senses, to our souls
But in hindsight, in the twilight
At the merciless break of dawn
Will we awake? Will love be gone?
Our memories slip through the hands of time
Like stars eclipsed in the dark, like you and I
All alone in the night
All alone in the night
All alone in the night

{Outro: Sondre Lerche, AURORA, both}
Alone in the night, how will you remember us
If your memory turns to dust?
Will you know me by heart?
By heart, by heart, by heart

[laribergantin]

how how how how how how how how how have I not heard about this song BEFORE TODAY? how?

[namidakoh]

This is a master piece!!!! Holy cow I just got transported to 1930-40s Disney magic land of fairies and love. Jesus this is amazing!

[kippys]

I really like how this music video has so many facets -- their complementary vocals and the backing orchestral quartet give it a whimsical nostalgic 40's/50's quality!

[Cielhart]

Just get together already, you guys fit each other too damn well for it not to be.

[Roberto-rqve]

And this is how Sondre Lerche let us know the power of subtly… Delicate and beautiful lyrics immerse in two iconic, silky voices. Thank you for always making new music and taking chances in a world that few people dare to push the envelope.

[davidcooke]

I once suggested on twitter that these two should do a collaboration and got a like from Sondre Being a fan of both I am enthralled with the outcome

[outoftunepianist]

sounds like it’s from an old, classic romance movie. i love it 🩵

[frlolz]

I've waited for this moment for what feels like an eternity 🤯😍

[neesqueendom]

Ahh, I love auroras " when we are apart" "apart" is all breathy and angelic....they should play her music in mental health institutions, it's so miraculous the way her vocals just soothe the soul., .❤️ and sondre just is so mesmerizing....the way he sings all alone in the just timeless ✨️

[deividsolis]

More feats with AURORA please!!!
Beautiful song. 🥰
