The blower's daughter - Damien Rice

18 oktober 2014

Waar het idee vandaan kwam? Tja, mooie avond, mooie muziek, hoe gaan dat soort dingen. Soms is het de tekst, soms de herinnering, soms het gevoel. En als alles samenkomt ontstaan er wel eens ideeën. 'Genoeg geluld, we gaan muziek maken!'. Laten we maar beginnen met het kippenvellertje uit 'Closer'

I can't take my eyes off of you

Damien Rice

And so it is
just like you said it would be
life goes easy on me
most of the time
and so it is
the shorter story
no love, no glory
no hero in her sky

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
just like you said it should be
we'll both forget the breeze
most of the time
and so it is
the colder water
the blower's daughter
the pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
did I say that I want to
leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
my mind...my mind...
'til I find somebody new
