Dido - Postcards

Tekst :

My love has gone
His boots no longer by my door
He left at dawn and as I slept, I felt him go
{Loop of Erik Satie, as in Pet Shop Boys Jack The Lad}

New York, New York, temperature s droppin
The band s out shoppin , not stoppin til ears pop
Cops protect shops, lots of yellow cabs and bellhops
And it never stops

I m waitin to do an interview, so much to tell you
Today I feel close enough to smell you
Additional dates they were plannin just fell through
Florida s out, we fly September 22 to Heathrow
So there s not really long to go
Tonight will be a brilliant show
Lettin you know I miss you
More than four hits the floor at a party
Send my love to everybody
Please, send my love to everybody (everybody everybody everybody...)
Send my love to everybody (everybody everybody everybody...

Honey, I m writin from D.C., feelin queasy
Stayin healthy on the road isn t easy
The TM recommend Sanatogen
Not one of them could resist takin the piss
I miss you like a lock in the door what s more
I go to sleep with my Walkman cos half the crew snore
Don t mean to be a bore, everybody s been great
But there s fifteen of us in a bus state-to-state
So I stay up late with a tape or meditate
My bed is travellin at fifty-five mph
When we make it to L.A., I ll still be miles away
It s not my best day I m gonna get some rest
God bless

My love has gone
(wo wo)
My love has gone (has has has ...)
(wo wo)

We just stopped a diner so I m takin time
To write a few lines. I m fine, sun shinin
Bus driver s reclinin on the grass as the trucks pass
Gleamin with a flash of sunlight from the glass
On the windscreen. As for us there s too much to relate
We ve done five gigs but we re only in our third state
America s big! You d love how they pile up your plate
Only place in the world even I could gain weight
Our next date is Wilmington, Delaware, Open air
There s a rumor Melle Mel ll be there
Anyway, all the best, God bless I m yawning
I really miss watching you get dressed in the morning

My love has gone
(wo wo)
My love has gone
(wo wo)
My love has gone
No earthly ships will ever
Bring him home

    Who do you want for your love

    I m not yet convinced that pride will come before a fall
    I have seen you standing in your Sunday best and all
    Waiting for a fool to take you further than you are
    Given time you ll finish every heartache that you start

    Chorus: Who do you want for your love
    Better make up...

    Will i ever

    Does it feel like ya
    You re never gonna find it
    Does it feel like ya
    Always one step behind it
    Does it feel like ya
    Out in this world alone cause you been lookin and prayin for love so long
    Does it feel like ya
    Wishing on a falling star
    Does it feel like ya
    Lonely and...

    Midnight apology

    Sweetie s tired,
    honey go to sleep.
    we ll be fine soon;
    don t waste your time on me.
    quiet breathing,
    our hearts beating fast.
    time for sleeping:
    close your eyes at last.

    one more time girl
    just get through tonight
    sorry sweetie
    tomorrow will be fine
    i know baby,
    how much can you take?
    i didn t mean to
    keep you up this late.

    quiet...

    Wishing well

    Take off your hat, kick off your shoes.
    You know you ain t goin anywhere.
    Spend all your time singin your blues.
    You know you ain t goin anywhere.

    You ve always been a good friend of mine
    But you always...

    Idolater

    Every morning I am sitting here
    Opening and reading your letters
    You´re asking for an autograph
    I´m singing thousand pictures
    My writing becomes unclear

    And I seem to be so far away
    But no autograph is bringing me closer
    Isit me or...
