I Put On This Dress Only For You

I fell in love for the first time
when I broke up with myself
breakin’ the lonely matrimony
put my ego on the shelf
Wasting my time with a sweetheart
getting lost in all the waste
feelin’ a breeze of relief
as I was bound in happy days

Oh she was bringing down

I fell in love for a second time
though this time I was too late
Watching the ship sail away 
Missing out on something great
Only in dreams she was mine
so far away when I was awake
That was the one time I was reckless
and put myself at stake

So she was bringing me down

I’m fallin’ in love for a third time
and this time I’m cold as ice
Can’t feel a thing just as long as I
keep on thinking twice
Breakin’ the laws of attraction
I’m all done so sign me out
I’m gonna stay up in the air
Leaving everything in doubt

‘cause she’ll be bringing me down

Lyrics:

I speak the truth
I’m here ‘cause I feel your blues
I’ve got some wonderful stuff to show you
I’ll have you standing on your feet
I promise this will be quick

You tell me you’re low
and you really could use some sleep
You’re at the foot of a hill too steep
I’ll have you running up that hill
without even breaking a sweat

So believe me
You know I’m only looking out for you
I do it all ‘cause you are my closest friend
I hope you’ll give me just a chance to get through
And we will do fine

There’s plenty where that came from
I’ve got a magical bag of fun
I’ll have you begging for more
You’re screaming for more and
The pleasure is always mine

Now wasn’t that nice
See, there is that lovely smile
I haven’t seen in a while
Well, did I make you feel good?
You know how I always do

So believe me
You know I’m only looking out for you
I do it all ‘cause you are my closest friend
I hope you’ll give me just a chance to get through
And we would do fine

There’s plenty where that came from
I’ve got a magical bag of fun
I’ll have you begging for more
You’re screaming for more and
the pleasure is always mine

So believe me
You know I’m only looking out for you

There’s plenty where that came from
I’ve got a magical bag of fun
I’ll have you begging for more
You’re screaming for more and
the pleasure is always mine

SAKARIS is the main project of Faroese electro producer Sakaris Emil Joensen.
Starting out in 2010 with his quirky 8-bit electro funk debut "Darling EP" and further establishing himself with the full-length 2012 album "I Have Beautiful Eyes", SAKARIS has become one of the most prominent electro artists from the remote and tiny Faroe Islands. The music ranges from tight, bright and optimistic dance music, to soaring 80s nostalgic soundscapes.
The latter years have been littered with performances on various prominent festivals, such as Spot Festival, JaJaJa Festival, G! Festival, Dias Nordicos and Waves Vienna, along with press hype from Clash Music, Wired UK and The Line of Best Fit.
2014 saw the release of three online-only singles "Score Music", "I Put on This Dress Only for You" and "Downer", all of them sharing an upbeat and tight dance feel and gender bending girl/boy relations lyrics. 
Following this, SAKARIS now looks forward to more touring and a possible album to be released in 2015.
