Discover the story of the song > Starálfur – Sigur Rós

The song is about a person (referred to as 'he') who is lying in bed, looking out the window at the night sky. He thinks about his day yesterday and today, while wearing his blue night clothes. He closes his eyes and imagines a small elf-like creature staring at him, but not moving. He opens his eyes and everything is fine, but he still feels like something is missing.
