Lyrics:
I'm touching hands with someone seriously beautiful
I feel it burning, and I know I'm standing far too close
I'm telling lies, and if it shows, I see that he don't care
I know he wants to take me home and get on outta here

But I got someone waiting at home
He says he in love, but lately, I just don't know
He don't see me or make me feel hot
Banging in the club with all my ladies, and he don't know that

He about to lose, 'bout to lose, 'bout to lose me
He about to lose me
He about to lose, 'bout to lose, 'bout to lose me
He about to lose me

I feel my body losing focus as he touches me
And I should go, but I can't overcome this chemistry
He pulls me close before he whispers something in my ear
He says he wants to take me home and get me outta here

I got someone waiting at home
He says he in love, but lately, I just don't know
He don't see me or make me feel hot
Banging in the club with all my ladies, and he don't know that

He about to lose, 'bout to lose, 'bout to lose me
He about to lose me
He about to lose, 'bout to lose, 'bout to lose me
He about to lose me

Someone by the bar keeps lookin' at us dancing
I see him staring at me, I see what he wants to be
Someone by the bar keeps lookin' at us dancing
I gotta, I gotta go, he don't know that

I'm touching hands with someone seriously beautiful

Lyrics:

'Amen'

My Love
If you never pray
Then you’ll never be mine
If you never talk to God
Then you’ll never talk to me
If you don’t raise your glass to Jesus
And then chase it with lime
If you never look for heaven 
You’ll never find your way into my sheets
No, you’ll never find me
You’ll never find me
No, you’ll never find me
You’ll never find me

Cause I, I’ve belonged 
To no one for so long
And I’ve been so lost 
Just waiting to be found

My Love
If you never pray
Then you’ll never be mine
If you never talk to God
Then you’ll never talk to me
If you don’t raise your glass to Jesus
And then chase it with lime
If you never look for heaven 
You’ll never find your way into my sheets

Cause I, I’ve been so wrong 
For so long, so long
And I’ve been so lost 
Just waiting to be found

And we, we’re so young 
We’re so goddamn young
But we were so much younger then

So take me back to the beginning
To that little piece of heaven
To that place where the summer never ends

To where they’re dancing in the streets
In the white, floral heat
And your kiss tastes like wine and cinnamon
And then finally we’ll be born again
We’ll be so much younger than we’ve ever been 
We’ll be young forever and the summer never ends
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

(And I said Jesus, oh Jesus
You’re always saving someone new
Won’t you give yourself to me
Just like I gave myself to you)

Amen (with Benjamin Lind)

Lyrics:

‘Claudine Longet’ 

Claudine, my love 
Chlorine, Claudine And polystyrene 
Claudine, my love
My Clau-dine

Honey mouth 
Your Aspen house
And your bright eyes
Snow on the ground 
You’re snow blind

You and your love 
In the bathroom light
In the afternoon
22 cal
Your cheeks bloom

Claudine, my love 
Chlorine, Claudine And polystyrene 
Claudine, my love
My Clau-dine

A gun in your hand
You close your eyes
And you loose grip
Honey on your hands
Your hands slip

Blood on the floor 
On your skin and your clothes
On your lips, in the snow
Snow in your blood
Your blood’s cold

Claudine, my love 
Chlorine, Claudine And polystyrene 
Claudine, my love
My Clau-dine

You and your love
In the sun, by the pool
In the afternoon
Amber and gold
White linen, perfume

You can sing your song
You can sing for the birds
And the sun and the trees
Sing it all day long
Sing it for me, please

Claudine, my love 
Chlorine, Claudine And polystyrene 
Claudine, my love
My Clau-dine

Claudine, my love 
Chlorine, Claudine And polystyrene 
Claudine, my love
My Clau-dine

Claudine 
Clau-dine
Do you love the snow?
Do you love it like I love you?
Do you miss it?
Spending your days by the swimming pool
Washing the stains 
Of blood and honey 
From your hands 
I understand why you did it 
I don’t blame you
I just wanna know
Do you miss Aspen?
Do you miss the snow?
The look of love
Your conscience clean
Am I ever enough?
My Clau-dine

Lyrics:

'Resin'

and summer washed all over us
it felt feverish and wild
heat wave, scent of orange trees
and sunlight in your eyes
and summer felt like loneliness
and like resin on my skin
and like a dry and sunlit train platform
where we kiss goodbye again

and hold me in your arms, my love
till it all just disappears
i try, but darling, i don’t know
how to love you without fear

this is sweet, amorous sadness
and these are white, floral days
this is summer, youth and love 
and it’s just too good to waste 
and you’re silk between my fingers
and you’re the best i’ve ever known
and i think i feel you slip away
every time i am alone

so hold me in your arms, my love
till it all just disappears
i try, but darling, i don’t know
how to love you without fear
and i hate how summer kills me
every time it appears
and i try, but darling, i don’t know
how to love you without fear

Lyrics:

'Rue Saint-Denis'

The snow starts to fall 
On this balcony
Over Rue Saint-Denis, Paris, France 
It sways in the wind 
Like the veil of some bride
Who is dancing her very first dance   
And it touches my skin
And then melts away 
Like mercury grasped in my hands

And then I say I might jump
And you say I’m not the type 
That I’ve never been chasing those highs 
But maybe I like the comedown 
Maybe I’m just here for the fall 

Now the snow is increasing 
While down in the streets 
The two wings begin to collide 
And later this evening 
I’ll turn on the T.V. 
To see how many people have died
And I stretch out my arm
Through the cast iron frame 
Into this wilderness of white 

And I just might jump 
Though I don’t want to die 
You know I’ve never been chasing those highs 
But maybe I like the comedown 
Maybe I’m just here for the fall

Yes, if I should fall
Down from seventh floor 
I’d lie there blood red in the white
Like a red rose grown 
Amongst the lilies, alone 
Like red wine on the dress of that bride
And sirens would ring 
As the ambulance came 
And drove me through the red traffic lights

And I say I won’t jump 
Into this valley of white 
No, I won’t but then maybe I might 
Maybe I like the comedown 
Maybe I’m just here for the fall
Maybe I’m just here for the fall

Lyrics

'Legion Étrangère'

Cet amour qui n'est pas un 
Dérivant comme un navire 
Disparaissant comme un mourant 
Qui n'en finisse pas de mourir 
Mon amour qui n'est pas un 
Le sang versé de tu, mon frère  
Le sang versé de un mourant 
De un soldat de la legion étrangère 

Cet amour-la 
J’avais dit qu'il fallait voir 
Cet amour-la 
Sur la mer d’encre noire 
Cet amour-la 
Et ces journées sans toi 
Cet amour-la 
Cet- cet amour-la

’Needy’

If I ever seem needy
It’s just ‘cause I need you
And I need you to need me
The way that I need you

I fall a part in the night
In the dark, on my own
So let your skin be my light
Let me make you my home

I am like some little child
Alone and afraid
And I used to be wild
Now I just fade away

You have no reason to fear
All my knives are still dull
And all I own disappeared
Except for these walls

I’m lying bloodied in these fields
Come and carry me home
And I’ll carry you as my shield
And wear you as my clothes

I am like some little child
Alone and in pain
And I am waiting for you
To come and give me a name

You have no reason to fear
There’s nothing I wanna take
I don’t need you to love me
Just tolerate -

Me and my love
And the tears in my eyes
If you can throw me these crumbs
Then you’re the love of my life

So if I ever seem needy
It’s just ‘cause I need you
And I need you to need me
The way that I need you

If I ever seem needy
It’s just ‘cause I need you
And I need you to need me
The way that I need you

Lyrics:

L’oubli de l’air

It’s the forgetting, the forgetting of air
He is a bridge, she is not even there

This is the void we surrender to
She was a clearing, at least she was to you

This is the grave that your life lies within
This is your language, your soul and your skin

This is her absence, it is all that is left
All you remembered was to forget

You fear the abyss so you’re closing your eyes
This is the rose, and you’re asking it “why?”

This is the air, unnamed and unthought
This is the distance between you and God

It’s the forgetting, the forgetting of air

L'oubli de l’air (with She Cant Afford Mascara)

Someone by the bar keeps lookin' at us dancing
I gotta, I gotta go, he don't know that

I'm touching hands with someone seriously beautiful
