Magnetised - Tom Odell

16 juli 2017

Een herhaling van een herhaling waarschijnlijk, van serieus lang geleden waarschijnlijk, van het genre talkshow dat ik eigenlijk nooit kijk. Maar iets weerhield me van zappen. En vervolgens komt die gozert met de weliswaar bekende naam, maar zonder herkenning qua liedjes. En die dendert even dit deuntje binnen. Beelden van eerder die dag komen terug, tekst valt precies goed, gedachten dwalen prettig af.

'Cause it's not right, I'm magnetised

to somebody that don't feel it, love paralyzed

Tom Odell

See those birds going across the sky
three thousand miles they fly
how do they know which way to go
somehow they always seem to know
they say there's mother nature in everything we see
wish I had a little mother nature in me
a little mother nature in me

'Cause it's not right, I'm magnetised
to somebody that don't feel it, love paralyzed
she's never gonna need me
but sure as the world keeps the moon in the sky
she'll keep me hanging on, she'll keep me hanging on

See the couple lying on the bus
falling asleep with so much trust
I wish I had a chance to let them know
their love is like a flower in the snow
if it's just pheromones then that may be
I wish you had a little pheromones for me
had a little pheromones for me

'Cause it's not right, I'm magnetised
to somebody that don't feel it, love paralyzed
I know you're never gonna need me
I'm sure as the world keeps the moon in the sky
she'll keep me hanging on, she'll keep me hanging on

North to south, white to black
when you love someone that don't love you back

It's not right, I'm magnetised
to somebody that don't feel it
love paralyzed, she's never gonna need me
but sure as the world keeps the moon in the sky
she'll keep me hanging on, she'll keep me hanging on
she'll keep me hanging on, she'll keep me hanging on
