Jai Paul – Jasmine Lyrics 10 years ago
Can you hear me, Jasmine?
Can you let me in?
Would you let me over?
Let me love you?
Jasmine
Is it cause I scheme?
is it cause i knew?
She gotta trust me
Moving quick, but past me
Jasmine
When I see her Jasmine
What’s a guy to do?
Please come back to me,
Make my dream come true
Cause when it comes to heartbreak
What’s a little boy gonna do?
Melt my heart of stone,
make my dream come true
Jasmine
Can I meet you Friday, Saturday?
If it’s your day?
I must be in a real dream
Cause I think it’s all for me
Is it good without me, baby
Is it pulling in?
Cause I think I’m wrong
Cause I’m flipping out, baby
When I see her, Jasmine
What’s a guy to do?
Please come back to me,
Make my dream come true
Cause when it comes to heartbreak
What’s a little boy gonna do?
Melt my heart of stone,
make my dream come true
When you see me, Jasmine,
I know what you think,
looking down on me,
don’t you think I’m cool?
When it comes to heartbreak,
I don’t wanna do this, yeah
Just come back to me,
make my dream come true

Tennis – Robin Lyrics 10 years ago
Why did you ever leave today?
No you've been miles away
You took a chance leaving at first glance
You can blame it on your circumstances
You set off on a simple lark
Meant to be home long before dark

Now you see that
All is not as it seemed
A fate you can't believe

Then i glimpse you as you lighted near
Cautiously began moving near
And i can't be sure if you can hear me
Now you can rest your tiny feet
Tuck away and rest your tired wings

Now you dream, oh above a degree
Too lovely to believe

Seeking shelter from the wind
It blows with strength that has no end
So small you seem within my hand
You gather strength to leave again

The storm is strong, but you carry on
And now it's gone

Seeking shelter from the wind
It blows with strength that has no end
So small you seem within my hand
You gather strength to leave again

Ooh

"Nothing at all in my head to say to you
Only the beat of the train that I'm on
Nothing I've learnt all my life on the way to you
One day our love was over and gone"

Because after
Istanbul

And I saw your brown eyes

And I saw your brown eyes

RJD2 – 1976 Lyrics 12 years ago
In 1976, Istanbul, Turkey, there was a major terrorist attack in which 4 were killed and 20 were wounded by Japanese Red Army terrorists in an attack at Istanbul airport.

Roughly translated into English, through the samples, I think this song about a person thinking of traveling to Istanbul, one of the most beautiful cities in the world in order to see it's beauty. Istanbul happens to be very far from this person so they person would rather look into the beautiful brown eyes of a significant other. It is said that they eyes are the windows to the soul.

It's about admiring the beauty of another human to a point where it's like you're staring into their soul. To kill another human is a terrible thing, and unfortunately Terrorism uses the killing of other humans as a scare tactic to promote their agenda. Very sad that terrorism is real, but no matter what the human soul/spirit will never die!

Excuse my hippie rant, very good song.

Istanbul

I just saw your brown
Because after
Istanbul

Incomplete phrases due to sampling, as eddy089 said, it probably means something to RJD2.

Washed Out – Lately Lyrics 13 years ago
It's all I want
It's all I've got
Don't forget to let it in



Seems to me like it's about love, I believe the "it" he's referring to is love. Not just any love, first love. When I say first love I don't mean his first time falling in love ever. I mean the first time you realize you love someone in a relationship. Idk, it just seems to make sense with the rest of the song. The energy of this song, it perfectly matches the rush...the fear of love.


I feel the weight
I'm unsure
Don't race to let it in


I love the repetition of "let it in" at the end of the verses. Don't forget to let love in, but don't rush into love either. Seems like he's secretly in love with someone and the secret is a weight on his shoulders. He says's he's unsure which makes me smile thinking about when I first love and I just couldn't work up the courage to tell her. Almost makes you second guess yourself.

It's so alive
It's all starting

Perhaps this is his first time being in love with someone, maybe it's something he's even sought after, and he just can't believe it's real. I think the first two verses are him speculating to himself about love and that "It's so alive, It's all starting" is actually that point where you fall in love with someone you're in a relationship with for the first time.

I could be completely wrong in all of this but it's just what the song means to me

Dr. Dog – Unbearable Why Lyrics 14 years ago
Lead guitarist Scott McMicken (from Express Night Out): "The idea behind that song was far more abstract or something. Toby (Leaman, bass) and I wrote the lyrics for that song together and the way it all went down - and we'd never done anything like this before - the concept was I had written that song and it's got its verse, and it's got its chorus, of course, and it's got its bridge, what I was doing was over the verse I had three different melodies.
I had three different melodies for the same chord progression, so we decided that the way we would work it is in the first verse we'd have the first melody. In the second verse we'd have the first melody, with the addition of the second melody. In the third verse we'd have the first melody, the second melody and the addition of the third. And so it became this crossword puzzle-word game to write those lyrics because what we did is we wrote the first melody - it exists alone in the first verse at the top of the song - and then those lyrics repeat as that melody repeats again in the second, but the second melody is introduced and what we wanted to have happen - if this makes any sense - is as new lyrics and new melodies are introduced over previous melodies and previous lyrics, that the sentences should make sense on their own, but they combine to make a third sentence. Like one syllable exists in one line where there isn't a syllable in the previous line.
For instance, the first melody's lyrics are: 'I'm doing time, I'm guilty' - we decided it'd be about this guy in jail - 'I'm doing time, I'm guilty for now,' so when the second line comes in it's, 'While doing time for now.' So the third sentence created out of those sentences at once is: 'When I'm doing time, I'm guilty for now.' I always hoped - it's cool that it sounds like a girl group - but I was hoping in some magical thing, especially in the third verse, what you would hear is actually lyrics that no particular person is singing, this combination of all."

Animal Collective – Street Flash Lyrics 16 years ago
http://animalcollective.org/lyrics/song/street-flash


Does anyone in here get hit with inside fever,
So bad sometimes it's hard to move around?
They'll show you all the things you are not doing,
Instead of helping you they'll block ya out.
And you're whining you shouldn't waste your morning,
But the couch fibers kept you inside.
Said I'm so sorry I came in late this evening,
But all the clocks around the town had died,
And all the fruit stores' colors were so bright,
With couples smiling, cooking things tonight,
And what were all those troubles on my mind?
Oh, I took a walk...

(Cough! Sniff...)
Well, uh,
Just what I need, right?The morning light.
The room (cough) we all have,
No more any (?)
I just listen tonight,
And all we know,
Is all that I have,
Is in control.

The room is filled with men and cock,
And I don't break 'till a midnight shock.
Are you coming out tonight?
Pretend I am? Well, I just might.
The room is filled with ancient dates,
Where I've been and what I ate.
Before I'm asked to throw them out,
I play with every little doubt.
The room is filled with gummy bears,
Electric shavers, ingrown hairs.
I keep the curtains tied in knots.
You sleep on cotton, rest in fluff.
The room is filled with catalogues,
Encyclopedias, books enough,
To keep me busy in the morning.
Sun sets fast without a warning.
The room is filled with cords and plugs,
Electronic translucent bugs.
And what's that crawling all around?
What's that twitching, is it still alive!?
Is it still alive!?
Is it still alive!?

Does anyone in here get hit with inside fever,
So bad sometimes it's hard to move around?
They'll show you all the things you are not doing,
Instead of helping you they'll block ya out.
And you're whining you shouldn't waste your morning,
But the couch fibers kept you inside.
I'm so sorry I came in late this evening,
But all the clocks around the town had died,
And all the fruit stores colors were so bright,
With couples smiling, cooking things tonight,
And what were all those troubles on my mind?
Yes, I took a walk.
Oh, I like a walk.
Oh, I like a walk.
