Tormund’s version of “In Your Eyes” for Lady Brienne
It’s time for funny Friday. This week a friend sent us a photo of Game of Throne’s Tormund holding a boombox John Cusack-style from Say Anything. We started imagining him serenading Lady Brienne and the lyrics for a Tormund version of Peter Gabriel’s “In your eyes” just flowed naturally. Someone needs to use these lyrics and make this song happen.
In your eyes
By Tormund Giantsbane (via Feelng.com)
Up north it gets so cold, all the time
Days pass, I stab a wight in the heart
Then you came throoooough the black gate
You this maiden from afar
From south now here in the snow
This powerful female knight you are
Jon is king, we will learn
The wights, soon will burn
In the winter, we stay by the hearth
When spring comes, let’s elope to Tarth
In your eyes
You’re Tarth’s Brienne
In your eyes
I’m better than a Thenn
In your eyes
Wildlings seem insane
In your eyes
I’m just a giant’s bane
In your eyes
You wield Oathkeeper
In your eyes
I’m a bit of a creeper
Here at the wall we all do our duty
But I just want you Brienne the beauty
My lady, you rescued Sansa from so much pain
You fought a bear, and beheld a shadow baby
The wall might fall and risk our survival
I Tormund will keep you warm and alive
Jon is king, we will learn
The wights, soon will burn
In the winter, we stay by the hearth
When spring comes, let’s elope to Tarth
In your eyes
You’re Tarth’s Brienne
In your eyes
I’m better than a Thenn
In your eyes
Wildlings seem insane
In your eyes
I’m just a giant’s bane
In your eyes
You wield oathkeeper
In your eyes
I’m a bit of a creeper
Here at the wall we all do our duty
But I just want you Brienne the beauty
In your eyes, in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes
Say Anything
Just imagine Tormund taking the place of John in this video. It would be amazing.
For reference, here are the original lyrics.
In your eyes
By Peter Gabriel
Love I get so lost, sometimes
Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
When I want to run away
I drive off in my car
But whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are
All my instincts, they return
And the grand facade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
In your eyes
The light the heat
In your eyes
I am complete
In your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
In your eyes
The resolution of all the fruitless searches
In your eyes
I see the light and the heat
In your eyes
Oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
The heat I see in your eyes
Love, I don’t like to see so much pain
So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive
And all my instincts, they return
And the grand facade, so soon will burn
Without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
In your eyes
The light the heat
In your eyes
I am complete
In your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
In your eyes
The resolution of all the fruitless searches
In your eyes
I see the light and the heat
In your eyes
Oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
The heat I see in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes
