Annotationen

Aus einer Spieldose erklingt ein Wiegenlied. Darüber ist ein einfacher Song in einer Simple Verse Form gebaut, wobei dieser sich verdichtet wie bei einer Maxisingle. Der Song handelt vom Verlassen werden und Zurückbleiben, von tief empfundener Einsamkeit. Und diese Botschaft kommt verpackt in süssesten melodischen Gitarrenakkorden. The Cure in Zuckerwatte. Mehr Dreampop als Shoegaze.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] He lives his life in a world Full of women and he takes What he wants from their love And he throws the rest away I cling to him and pray But still, he slips away And now it's just too late To wish him back again [Verse 2] She won't put up with this life So she leaves him and she finds Someone else, falls in love And she travels far away I say that it's okay And swallow all my pain And now it's just too late To wish her back again [Verse 3] They left me here on my own In a nightmare and I just Can't forgive any more So I smile and I turn away Don't listen when they say They wish that I could stay And now it's just too late To wish me back again
