The Cardigans : Life
Letras
1. CARNIVAL
I will never know
Cause you will never show
Come on and love me now
Come on and love me now
Carnival came by my town today
Bright lights from giant wheels
Fall on the alleyways
And I'm here
By my door
Waiting for you
I will never know
Cause you will never show
Come on and love me now
Come on and love me now
I here sounds of lovers
Barrel organs, mothers
I would like to take you
Down there
Just to make you mine
In a merry-go-round
2. GORDON’S GARDEN PARTY
You in brown checked suit
Said my dress was very cute
I found you found me
Dancing in this melody
Heavenly
We were swinging on so nice
Bubbly pink champagne on ice
Nancy, Jaques Closeau and Claire
I believe they all were there
Having the time of their lives
You had Rose's lime
Mixed with vodka, I had wine
People having fun,
Cocktails in the evening sun
Give me one
We were swinging on so nice
Bubbly pink champagne on ice
Nancy, Jacques Closeau and Claire
I believe they all were there
Having the time of their lives
3. DADDY’S CAR
We took off that sunny day
Packed our things and went away
Me and friends in daddy's car
To find out how summers are
Found a card to send from wherever we went
From Luxembourg to Rome
From Berlin to the moon
From Paris to Lausanne
From Athens to the sun
Our car became a spacecraft
Flashing through the world
Crashed down in Amsterdam
We'll take off some rainy day
Pack our things and go away
Families and hotel bars
To find out how summers are
Find a card to send to some really old friends
From Luxembourg to Rome
From Berlin to the moon
from Paris to Lausanne
From Athens to the sun
Our car became a spacecraft
Flashing through the world
Crashed down in Amsterdam
4. SICK AND TIRED
Sick, tired and homeless
With no one here to sing for
Tired of being weightless
For all these looking good boys
You can always say my attic has its charm
You can always say you did no major harm
You can always that summer had its charm
And that you did no major harm
Oh, spare me if you please
Sick, tired an sleepless
With no one else to shine for
Sick of all my distress
But I won't show I'm still poor
Symptoms are so deep
Something here's so wrong
Nothing is complete nowhere to belong
Symptoms are so deep
I think I'd better stay
Here on my own
So spare me if you please
5. TOMORROW
Someone's thinking of her
A fifteen hour trip away
Life is so much slower
Than a charter trip delay
Tomorrow, she won't feel half of this
Tomorrow morning is a sugar kiss
Tomorrow, heavenly no sorrow
She will lose gravity
Tomorrow
Someone's thinking of the her
Trough the hazy scenery
Life is blue as water
When you're missing somebody
Tomorrow, she won't feel half of this
Tomorrow morning is a sugar kiss
Tomorrow, heavenly no sorrow
She will lose gravity
Tomorrow
6. RISE & SHINE
I want to be alone for a while
I want earth to breathe to me
I want the waves to grow loud
I want the sun to bleed down
See the waves go down
See the moon alone
See the world unshown
I raise my head and whisper
Rise and shine
Rise and shine my sister
I want to see the wounded moon
I want the sea to break through
I want it all to be gone tomorrow
So I've come to say goodbye
7. BEAUTIFUL ONE
Smooth dreams in leaves
Raised in teacup
Stick down to sleep
Like an envelope
Filled up with words for you
Wrapped up in curls
Sweet as the summer
Cheek soft as a fur
Grace in a slumber
Beautiful wonder boy
Soft beams from an early sun
On my truly beautiful one
Shimmer from a Saturday sun
On my truly beautiful one
Rise in the morning
Shine 'til the dawning
Stretched out to breathe
Down from the rooftops
Stick down to sleep
Like an envelope
Filled up with words for you
8. TRAVELING WITH CHARLEY
Once he gets a mystic call
Jump into his motorcar
Once we're rolling down the road
He's forgotten where to go
Travelling with Charley
My detective darling
My agent hasn't solved a case
My agent never finds a trace
But Charley has always style
Charley is always nice
Poor Charley
He would be nothing without me
Once I clear his memory
But he'll crash into a tree
Once we're getting to the place
Someone else has solved the case
Travelling with Charley
My detective darling
Travelling with Charley
My detective darling
My agent hasn't solved a case
My agent never finds a trace
But Charley has always style
Charley is always nice
Poor Charley
He would be nothing without me
But I do love him
9. FINE
Upon a roof below the moon
Nearby a park bench in the sun
Upon the stairway to your room
Why won't you wrap your life around
Those certain words I just found
I wear your golden ring inside
Suits me very fine
I wear your golden heart in mine
Suits me very fine
A backseat sofa in the dark
Upon a viewpoint in our town
Nearby a fountain in a park
Why won't you wrap your life around
Those certain words I just found
I wear your golden ring inside
Suits me very fine
I wear your golden heart in mine
Suits me very fine
I wear your golden heart in mine
And life is very fine
10. CELIA INSIDE
You don't want the sun to shine in
So you turn the curtains down
Your eyes still don't show me a thing
And you don't feel it's sunny outside
You don't want no joy for a while
But you stay up late at night
It hurts you that she's still alive
So you'll raise flowerbeds inside
But she, she will not get bothered at all
She's just watching the water at fall
So you should give them just what they need
Water and poetry
Cause she will not bother at all
She's just watching the water at fall
You should give them just what they need
Cause she will not bother at all
But you won't say you're not adored
By her beauty Celia inside
You don't want to feel her at all
But who's that fellowman of hers
With who, your dear Celia moved
And they'll sleep happily inside
But you won't say you're not adored
By her beauty
And her purity
And her lovely Celia inside
11. HEY! GET OUT OF MY WAY
Listen baby
Thoughts has crossed my mind
And it's clear now
You are not my kind
Oh! I've tried boy
Better ways to say
What I feel now
It seems you plan to stay
But I won't waste a day
So I say hey!
Get out of my way
Hey! hey! hey!
You've always been in my way
Hear now honey
I'll be good to you
If you stay gone
Far out of my view
I'm sick and tired
Of your dramatic ways
And when I think of
All those wasted days
I shake loose of your laces
And say
Hey! get out of my way
Hey! hey! hey!
You've always been in my way
This is all that I will say
This is all that I will do
I'm not in love with you
12. AFTER ALL…
After all you were perfectly right
But I'm scaring close to insanity
And on a night like this
Nothing stays the same
Nothing looks the same
After all you were perfectly right
Though our relation just split me in two
And on a night like this
Pieces fall apart
Visions fall apart
After all you were perfectly right
I have never been happy before
And on a night like this
You can hear the worst
See behind the words
After all you were perfectly wrong
Though I thought I'd found love
And on a night like this
Nothing could be worse
Nothing could be worse
13. SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH
You've seen life through distorted eyes
You know you had to learn
The execution of your mind
You really had to turn
The race is run the book is read
The end begins to show
The truth is out, the lies are old
But you don't want to know
Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
Fill your head all full of lies
The people who have crippled you
You want to see them burn
The gates of life have closed on you
And now there's just no return
Nobody will ever let you know
When you ask the reasons why
They just tell you that you're on your own
Fill your head all full of lies
