Here are some photos taken from the Skyscraper soundtrack’s vinyl. As you can see, the order of the tracks is slightly different from the CD, as Jonas Bjerre has told before. Apparently the vinyl is limited to only 200 copies, but we have no confirmation on this yet. Thanks to Ally Winford. PS: Hopefully you

I could dream of travelin’ to some far-away place In your arms it’s better And through my window pane the world looks brand new It’s our place if you’ll come with me Oh, it’s hard sometimes when the world pretends to know where all this will go It’s hard to be one of them when
