Lied van de week : week 32 - 2011

Lorelai - Fleet Foxes

Wie mijn blog aandachtig leest, weet dat ik heel graag luister naar Fleet Foxes. Ook hun nieuwste single is wat mij betreft weer een voltreffer. En ik vind vooral die ene zin zo mooi : "I was old news to you then".

Fleet Foxes - Lorelai by Republic of Music

Je vindt dit nummer op het prachtige album Helplessness blues, dat je hier kan kopen.

Lyrics :

So, guess I got old
I was like trash on the sidewalk
I guess I knew why
Often it's hard to just sweet talk

I was old news to you then
Old news, old news to you then

You, you were like glue
Holding each of us together
I slept through July
While you made lines in the heather

I was old news to you then
Old news, old news to you then

Fell for the ruse with you then
Old news, old news to you then

And I still see you when I try to sleep
I see the garden, the tower, the street
Call out to nobody, call out to me
Chip on the shoulder, the diamond, the teeth

Now I can see how
We were like dust on the window
Not much, not a lot
Everything stolen or borrowed

I was old news to you then
Old news, old news to you then
