Suffused With Love Lyrics
I heard him yell something
It shouldn't be this bad
He's spitting as he says "Hi"
I catch fire
So fortunate for you
You were free to choose
That's not enough to keep me from yelling
She shivers at her desk
As he yells "12 PM"
But no one's running late
They're all airheads
Cause he is on the move
And these virgins talk about groove
And make it sound so credible
Oh tonight's suffused with love
Don't spend all your time
It's only hit and run
Why spend all your time
making someone else's dream?
You always meet these girls
Penetrating eyes
And tentatively I require names
But he is on their minds
Young, lost occupied time
vanishes, unfortunately
Can I have learned eyes?
I knew you'd hesitate
I pictured this "unfortunately, no
We haven't got the time
for he is in our minds"
Just about enough to keep me on the outside
Is tonight suffused with love?
Don't spend all your time
It's only hit and run
Why spend all your time
making someone else's dream?
It shouldn't be this bad
He's spitting as he says "Hi"
I catch fire
So fortunate for you
You were free to choose
That's not enough to keep me from yelling
As he yells "12 PM"
But no one's running late
They're all airheads
Cause he is on the move
And these virgins talk about groove
And make it sound so credible
It's only hit and run
Why spend all your time
making someone else's dream?
Penetrating eyes
And tentatively I require names
But he is on their minds
Young, lost occupied time
vanishes, unfortunately
I knew you'd hesitate
I pictured this "unfortunately, no
We haven't got the time
for he is in our minds"
Just about enough to keep me on the outside
It's only hit and run
Why spend all your time
making someone else's dream?

I love this song. I have no idea what it is suppose to mean, but it reminds me of working in an office which a bunch of cubicles, and this one girl in particular...
Seems like it's about a guy who doesn't know how to get girls. It's like the stereotypical nerd and jock to me, the nerd being the guy whose viewpoint the song is from.
Actually, it seems like it's one girl the singer is preoccupied with. I say that because the last verse seems like he gets shot down by the girl that maybe is a friend of his that treats him like the best male friend. Heh, maybe it's not just one girl that does it to the guy in this song.
I saw Sondre live in March this year. He said this was written when he was still a teenager in school, about not being popular and not with the "in" crowd.
"Don't spend all your time It's only hit and run Why spend all your time making someone else's dream?"
It rings so true :)
Sondre also said no he wasn't bitter...lol
amazing song.
sondre lerche is a genius...
i love every of his song,especially this one!!!!
It seems like someone who is bitter about being unsuccessful with love. Clearly, it sounds as if his competition is someone who is pulling tang all over the place and the object of the singer's affection has a crush on this guy so much that he is either not considered or has been friend zoned as a result.
Beautiful song though. Wish I could find a tab.
